I emailed them to ask a simple question about witnessing a signature. Four days later, didn't bother to respond, even to tell me to go to hell. Obviously only interested in those coming to them with "big bucks" issues. Typical shysters. AVOID!

MacDonald Oates have provided excellent, friendly advice for property transactions, including the sale of the development site at Holden's Mews, Aldwick. More recently when drafting our wills. Highly recommended.
