The best solicitors around, don’t hesitate just give them a call!

For anyone looking for a solicitor, I can only recommend O’Donnell’s!

Top quality legal work, great communication throughout, and amazing people. Selling and buying houses can be stressful, however this time around with O’Donnells I had zero stress.

Easily contactable, great engagement and just top tier legal work and customer service.

Not just the best solicitors in Saddleworth, but I’d go as far to say in the UK.

Special thanks to Kelly, Asia, and Julian, and the rest of staff!

Friendly with clear pricing

I had a great experience using this firm for my remortgage and transfer of deeds. Everyone I dealt with was really friendly and helpful, and the pricing was clear and upfront with no surprises. They were always easy to get hold of when I needed reassurance or had questions, and everything was completed smoothly and on time. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again and would happily recommend them to others.

I needed some advice following a MARS offer. The Solicitor contacted me very quickly in response to my initial contact. He was extremely helpful and kept me informed throughout the whole process. The face to face was arranged over a Microsoft Teams call due to the distance between the office and where I live. I would highly recommend them.

Fantastic company…

From start to finish everything was explained in an simplified way, as there is an awful lot of jargon. My advisor was very patient and understanding. Taking time to answer numerous questions that I asked. I think having Zoom calls is a great Idea. So you aren't pressured into getting to their premises but also better then just receiving letter through the post. I was extremely please with my service. Thank you.

Thank you

I'd like to thank the team at O'Donnells for their service in the sale and purchase of three properties on my behalf.
As the conveyancing progressed they dealt with a number of unknown issues all of which came to a satisfactory conclusion.

This is the first time I have used O’Donnell Solicitors.
The service received from Jill Waddington was highly professional, responsive and caring, and she explained all legal advice in an easily understandable way.
Cara was quick to respond to any queries along the way and a credit to the team.
I have no hesitation in recommending them to others and will definitely use them again.

I can’t thank the team enough for the way they handled the sale of our late father’s house. During what was a very difficult time for our family, they were professional, kind, and incredibly efficient throughout the entire process. They kept me informed at every stage and made everything feel straightforward and manageable. I’m truly grateful for their support and would highly recommend their services.

A really positive experience

I had a really positive experience with O’Donnell Solicitors while going through my MARS application. My main contact was Kenneth Lee, and he was absolutely brilliant throughout the entire process.

He was clear, supportive, and always happy to explain things in a way that was easy to understand, which made what could have been a stressful process feel much more manageable. His professionalism and attention to detail gave me real confidence every step of the way.

I would highly recommend O’Donnell Solicitors, and especially Kenneth Lee, to anyone needing support with a MARS application.

Courtney Sheckleton was amazing how she dealt with all the obstacles we encountered.
