What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Property investors and repeat conveyancing clients form a large part of the feedback for this Belfast practice, and their accounts consistently emphasise reliability and clear communication. Several reviewers describe being kept informed at every stage, with questions answered directly and progress updates arriving without the need to chase. Conveyancing work features prominently, including a client returning for a fourth transaction and another who sold a property through the firm while praising Jeannie Quinn for professionalism and sustained contact from instruction to completion.

Named staff appear regularly in accounts of personal injury and road traffic cases, with Michael Allison, Enda Lavery, Hannah Gilchrist, Damian and Thomas all singled out for thoroughness, compassion and the ability to make unfamiliar legal processes feel straightforward. Reviewers also value the support of secretarial and trainee colleagues, among them Christine, Caitlin, Niamh Marshall and Ms Jennings, whose courteous and personable handling is mentioned alongside the solicitors' own efforts. Speed of response is a recurring theme, as is the impression that advice is tailored to the client's interests, whether the matter is a complex case or a long-running property portfolio. Clients frequently note that they have already passed the firm's details to family and friends.

Probably safer to get AI to write you a letter judging by the quality of the one I'm reading atm! £150 doesn't get you much these days! Buyer beware

MTB solicitors handled my personal injury claim after I was involved in a non-fault traffic collision in April 2025 when a van collided with the rear of my car during my morning commute. MTB handled every aspect of my case on my behalf with top class professionalism. I did not need to be involved in any discussions beyond outlining the circumstances of the incident and providing some photographic evidence of vehicle damage to MTB. They arranged a medical assessment for me and assimilated the results into the evidence base. The settlement offer from the at-fault party was higher than expected. They clearly advised me on all of my available options in response to the offer and explained how each would likely play out. The circumstances of the offer were unique and they strongly advised that I settled immediately as my best course of action. Given the alternative pathways that were explained I agreed settling was the correct decision and the case was settled in October 2025. I would highly recommend MTB and have done so since.

MTB dealt with my road traffic incident. They were very supportive and kept me in the loop through the process. Well organised and very easy to talk to when needed. Very happy with the process and outcome.

Have worked with Damian and Jeannie for a number of years as I have grown my property investment company. They have been brilliant to work with and a real asset. Very quick to reply and making sure your actual questions are answered, offer advice and always looking out for their client's best interest. Always feel completely confident that the work is done to the highest of standards. Can't recommend them enough
