What our clients say

Rhys McClenaghan, double world champion & Olympic Champion

I needed help with a recent house purchase so my Dad recommended Boyd Rice for me as it’s a local company. As a first time buyer of a property I was confused about a lot of aspects of this purchase so Ben Wall was able to insight me and inform me of all the different options that I could take and this was very helpful. Ben is very approachable and easy to contact as well, so I was able to contact him with any issues or queries that I had in relation to the property purchase and this went above and beyond my expectations. I certainly wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Boyd Rice solicitors to anybody else, and if I ever needed another solicitor I would certainly come back.

I recently used Boyde Rice as my conveyancing solicitors. My main solicitor for the transaction was Ben Wall. There were a number of problems with people, for what ever reason, not being able to complete. This resulted in a long drawn out procedure. Ben was so patient and professional in the manner he handed all problems that were thrown at him. I can't thank him and his staff for the help and support they gave me throughout the transaction and would have no hesitation in recommending him and his firm. He even arranged for my wife and I to have our wills drawn up, which was a great help.Highly recommended this firm.

I can highly recommend Boyd Rice Solicitors, I’ve had to their services twice and I’m highly satisfied with the outcome. Pattiann made me feel at ease from the first moment of my case, which was a big thing. She was very pleasant to deal with and always kept me up-to-date with everything that was going on, and in a timely matter. Pattiann was always easy to contact and if I missed her or she read dealing with other clients, she always came back to me, once she was free. I really can’t thank her enough for the work she has done over the past two years for me. It was an awful time and she really helped me. Anyone who needs a good solicitor and advice should check out Body Rice. Top service all round.

Initial contact with Boyd Rice came about when we asked the Estate agents to recommend a solicitor to deal with the sale of our house.

Michael Nicholl

1678729150

In searching for a solicitor to pursue a hearing loss claim against my former employer a former work colleague recommended Boyd Rice Solicitor to me .I contacted them and was put in touch with Neil McGranaghan. After Neil clearly explained how the claim process worked I instructed him to pursue the hearing loss claim against my employer.Throughout the whole process Neil arranged for me to attend hearing tests and consultation with a specialist and kept me up to date every step of the process. I didn’t have to arrange anything, just turn up for my appointmentsI had a positive outcome to my hearing loss claim and would definitely recommend Neil McGranaghan to anyone seeking to pursue a hearing loss claim.

Dylan Spence

Mark Wardil

1678372764

With recommendations from our Estate Agent, and with a very fair quotation of costs, we asked Boyd Rice to act for us in our recent house purchase.We cannot fault the efficiency of Ben Wall who acted for us. It was not the easiest of moves, with changes of dates and problems communicating with another part of the chain, but Ben handled it all calmly and professionally as well as reassuring us each time a further complication appeared.Emails and phone calls were answered promptly and our face to face signing meeting was by far the easiest we have experienced.We would have no hesitation in recommending Boyd Rice for conveyancing services and would definitely use them again: though hopefully we will not need to do so.
