I used ELP Arbuthnott McClanachan for convenancying and estate agent services when selling my home in Edinburgh recently. They provided a top-notch service and I was very happy with the whole process from start to finish. It was very professional and the staff at ELP communicated clearly and quickly about all the nitty gritty details of marketing the property, arranging a home report, organising viewings, making decisions about offers, and getting all the legal paperwork and contracts concluded in a timely manner. I really appreciated their years of experience as it was my first time selling my home and their knowledge of the Edinburgh property market is extensive and very useful. Would use again if I were living back in Scotland and purchasing or selling a home. Thanks! :)
I can highly recommend ELP Solicitors. All my family now use them. Give them a call you won't regret it.
Duncan McFadzean (Employment Law) - Duncan was excellent throughout the process. He was diligent and his communication clear at each stage, which was very reassuring. I was extremely grateful for his advice and it was excellent to have his support. The whole process was very efficient and I would certainly use ELP Arbuthnot McClanachan again.
Duncan’s assistance with employment law matters was invaluable. The advice given was professional and at each stage the options available were outlined clearly and considerately. Communications were of a high standard and this helped to ensure progress was smooth and efficient. I would highly recommend Duncan to anyone who requires help or advice on employment law.
Very happy with ELP. I used them for the purchase of a property.
I would recommend them. Fee was reasonable and kept me informed.
Laura and Brittany helped me purchase my first property and their service was excellent. They were fantastic in guiding me through the process and made sure everything went smoothly. Would highly recommend.
Laura and Brittany have done an excellent job supporting me with the purchase of a second home.
Laura (patiently!) guided me through the Scottish conveyancing process which I was unfamiliar with having only navigated the process in England previously. Laura was very responsive which I find is the most important thing when it comes to the stressful process of buying property.
I will certainly come back to ELP Arbuthnott McClanachan when I need help with legal matters in the Edinburgh area in future.
Laura and Brittany at ELP made the process of buying so easy - we were well informed throughout. Great advice and support during what is always a stressful experience!
A huge thank you to Laura and Brittany who were professional, hard working and friendly thought the home buying process. I would highly recommend them both and ELP Arbuthnot McClanachan. Buying and selling can be stressful and confusing at times but we felt safe and well informed at each stage. Thank you and well done all! Caroline and Andy Marchant
Highly recommended local business that has guided us safely with both property and commercial sales and purchases for over a decade in Edinburgh.
Both Laura McFadzean and Duncan McFadzean offer a safe and steady pair of hands to guide you through the tricky Edinburgh market. Thorough and professional from start to finish.
I had the good fortune to have Ian Wells to advise me on a long and complex employment issue that I had over the lockdown period.
An outstanding solicitor that always accommodated my issue with care and respect and patience and understanding.
Ian was professional at all times and was very approachable and friendly.
I would have no hesitation to instruct ELP in the future if I need anything. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED and the value for money was more than excellent. A flexible and exceptional service all round.
Thank you for everything Ian. OUTSTANDING.
Having bought the property last year during lockdown, there were a few things which we all had to get used to, including virtual correspondence and lack of face to face contact.
Lisbeth Ann and Laura were extremely professional in their approach and I thought their work throughout was exemplary. Would certainly recommend to anyone!
Lisbeth-Ann and Laura went over and above to help us with our home purchase, we are most grateful to them and would recommend this firm completely.
Every part of the service was well communicated and delivered better than expected. The team are highly efficient and take all the pain of selling a property away from you. Highly recommended !

Reply from ELP Arbuthnott McClanachan
A friendly efficient and professional organisation.From initial contact to setting up sale and showing our property, each individual we dealt with was always very helpful and allowed us to make the sale of our property as stress free as this exercise can be.
Have nothing but good things to say about all involved and would not hesitate to use them in the future or recommend them to anyone looking to put their property on the market.
As always great work from Lisbeth and her team very helpful helping me all the way through the process.
Duncan and his team were very helpful and professional offering the best advice for my business in taking on a new lease of a commercial property. I would use them again and would recommend them to other small businesses in Edinburgh.
After searching around multiple solicitors, we do not regret going with ELP to help us buy our first home. Laura and Lisbeth-Ann were brilliant from start to finish, communicating efficiently and assisting us throughout every step of the purchase.
This is the second time I have used ELP and I have to say, they are extremely professional and very responsive. They guide you through the complicated paperwork and processes of purchasing the property step by step. I would like to thank Lisbeth & Laura once again. Looking forward to continuing business again, thanks ladies.
