MacIntyre Law - Milton Keynes

Matthew F.

When I needed a family solicitor, Elaine came highly recommended by a close family friend. From our very first conversation, Elaine came across as extremely professional, warm, empathetic and honest. Most importantly, it was clear that she was primarily child focused, which was very important to me, as I wanted my son’s best interests always to be the top priority.

Her interactions with my ex partners solicitors were always non confrontational, but robust in trying to resolve quite difficult issues.
When the situation escalated, she responded quickly and supported me at a very challenging time of my life. Elaine and her secretary Alexandra, were always really approachable, reassuring and extremely professional.

Elaine recommended an excellent barrister to represent me and when our case went to the family court, they worked together tirelessly to ensure that my statements and proposals were properly presented. It was a very stressful and daunting experience, but Elaine’s reassurance, support and guidance throughout, helped enormously.

At the final hearing, the outcome was absolutely everything we hoped for, but hadn’t dared believe we could achieve. We will forever be grateful for Elaine and her team ensuring that me and my little boy will continue to have a close, loving, fun relationship I think we both deserve! It was heartwarming to see just how delighted Elaine was with the result and how genuinely she cared for myself and my family.

Nothing is more important than family and whilst I hope never to need the services of a family solicitor again, I wouldn’t consider using anyone else and would 100% recommend Elaine to anyone who did! Thank you so, so much!

I would highly recommend Ellie and the team. We finally got a resolution after using other services who sent me down the wrong path which resulted in less funds. Ellie was very very clear what was needed to be done and what was fair. Communication was second to none and i really felt that she understood my situation and the outcome that she was required. I am grateful to Ellie that she also was very friendly and personable helping me really understand all of the legal jargon. I will and do recommend everyone to use Ellie

I would highly recommend Ellie to anyone seeking help with their divorce. After a frustrating experience with a previous solicitor that resulted in high costs and little progress, I decided to take control of the administrative side myself. Ellie provided invaluable expertise exactly when I needed it. Her clear, straightforward explanations and expert legal guidance helped me navigate the process with confidence. Thanks to her support, I achieved a faster, more cost-effective resolution, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the outcome.

Elaine and her team of administrative staff are unique. I needed a solicitor who practiced family law, and Elaine could not have come more highly recommended. Not only does she offer a Pay As You Go scheme to accommodate those unable to drown themselves in Solicitor’s bills, she also ploughs a huge amount of time, passion and energy into her side line Divorce Without Lawyers; allowing necessary legal advice to be available to all.
Elaine and her team are personable, empathetic and create a caring environment for those who are going through, what for some can be, one of the most challenging times of their lives.
We need more genuine people like this to join the profession and represent the average person. It has been refreshing to have the opportunity to meet with someone who speaks in plain language, eliminating the fluff, to ensure I was armed with the knowledge I needed, on a level I understood. Thank you.

Elaine and the team were superb. Clear and effective advice to enable matters to be progressed without wasting time or money. Highly recommend them and would use them again in a heartbeat

No stars
I am beyond disappointed with the service from McIntyre law. So much so that I raised a complaint and from this they didn’t even acknowledge nor apologise for the poor service
Elaine was dreadful. Never there or on holiday or just seemingly couldn’t be bothered because there was never the progressions nor the support I was expecting to receive from recommend Firm, such as this

When I made the complaint to Rachel McIntyre, it seemed all she wanted to do was justify as opposed to Listen or understand or indeed care

Even when reported to the ombudsman, they literally left their responses until the very last minute… Indeed to the second on the last day

The poorest solicitors I have ever come across. I’m still awaiting the refund for the money on account… But no doubt they will string that out as they did every single communication with myself

For what is a stressful situation I actually feel even more stressed, distressed even with the support and even at one point the lawyer Elaine, was shouting at me & talking over me to justify her poor work
Avoid them

I reached out to Ellie to ask for some legal advice and found her incredibly knowledgeable, she was clear with the information she gave me and reassured me, leaving me feeling much better.

Thanks for your help, really appreciate it.

Unfortunately after being highly recommended this company to support me through a divorce I had possibly the worse experience of any company I’ve ever dealt with. They were obviously over capacity and dealing with numerous staff retention issues, I waited over 6 weeks to even receive a response and when I got a response was told I did not have enough credit on my file to warrant a response, something that could have quickly been resolved had I have known. When I did speak to Elaine nothing ever really progressed as we just covered the same old ground as previously and I completed a long 12 page document only to be told that the original document was now superseded by a new version and I would have to complete that one now, causing further delays. At a time when I was at my lowest and most stressed this company were inhuman and unhelpful, I decided to take care of the remaining proceedings and didn’t benefit in any way from Macintyre Law financially it was at huge cost. It saddens me to write this review, I am so disappointed that many of my business network recommended them but I cannot believe they would have had any personal experience of this company.
