As a couple not used to having the need to seek legal support, I can wholeheartedly say that we have been delighted with the advice, guidance and care offered by the staff of Machins. They helped us navigate a very challenging and difficult legal case with great sensitivity, allied with an honest and straight-talking assessment of how best we should proceed. Now all is concluded, we remain very grateful for their help.

I have used Machins in Luton for the past 40 years of buying and selling houses. Everyone I have ever dealt with at Machins is professional, pro-active and great at communication with updates when you need them. I cannot fault them. If I ever move again, I would put my conveyancing in Machins safe pair of hands.

We're proud of the relationships we build with our clients.
Everything explained so that I understood. No question to silly to answer. Kept me updated at all times. Felt totally supported .
A very good and straight forward firm which tell you as it is. My case was complex in the extreme and I genuinely felt that they really understood the nuances. At the start we discussed the desired out come and what might be achievable. The outcome was absolutely in line which was actually achievable and exactly that which was desired. Though out the case, I always was kept abreast of developments and felt that they were on my side.
I have used this solicitors several times for other non dispute related reasons. I have always had a good experience with them, and had high hopes. I had a wonderful and friendly legal team, who helped me secure a positive outcome. 10/10 would recommend to all.

I have used Machins for both business and personal work for more than two decades, and would not go anywhere else for legal advice or work.
I have found that the team’s compassion, dedication to their clients, professionalism, warmth and empathy are really what sets them apart from other firms I have worked with combined with a no-nonsense attitude they really make their clients feel valued and get exceptional results.
Machins is truly consistent in offering the highest level legal work, with a combination of humanity, discretion and professionalism I have not encountered anywhere else.
I cannot tell you how lucky I feel in dealing with professional people with such high moral standards and impeccable business practice. It has been an absolute pleasure in dealing with you, even though my personal circumstances were somewhat difficult, you at least made it bearable, which is indeed an immense skill.
Machins Solicitors have a raft of expertise to call upon when dealing with either corporate matters or personal affairs. They communicate efficiently and are so personable, explaining complex issues in layman’s terms, providing the confidence you need to make the right decisions. I would highly recommend Machins.
