We help individuals across Ireland:

  • Navigate divorce or judicial separation

I would highly recommend Alan McGee & Co. as solicitors for first time buyers. Vikki was a complete professional, very knowledgeable, straight forward & easily to talk to when questions arise. She made the whole process of buying my first home completely painless.

I would highly recommend dealing with Alan McGee & Co. I worked with Vikki when purchasing my house and no ask was too big or small. Queries were answered promptly and everything ran smoothly. They made what could be a very difficult process very smooth and easy to navigate.

Vikki was a real pleasure to deal with during the formalisation of the purchase of our house. She kept in touch, made sure paperwork was completed in good time and that we were in the loop every step of the way. We hit a small snag when the sale was being finalised, and Vikki dealt with it with the utmost of efficiency and professionalism. She kept us calm and explained in full our situation and steps to resolve. Thank goodness we had such a competent and friendly solicitor throughout the purchase process – I would not hesitate to use Alan McGee Solicitors again and would recommend them in a heartbeat.

Superb service! Myself and my partner just purchased our new home. Vikki and Alan were more than helpful. They were always there at the end of the phone with support and help for all our silly questions. Vikki was exceptionally diligent and patient. As first time buyers we had so many questions and didn't have a clue what we were doing and Vikki guided us every step of the way. I would highy recommend Alan McGee & Co. Absolutely outstanding!
