I have found the communication skills that Mrs Oldham has provided at Machins Solicitors have been an impeccable standard. This firm has provided legal services to a high standard and catered to all languages in the process. Mrs Oldham has an excellent understanding and knowledge of all backgrounds.
Mrs S A.
I would like to take this opportunity of thanking Mrs Oldham and her secretary for their exceptional attention to detail in this obviously very personal and difficult matter for me. The calm, cool and collected way in which they both dealt with my matter was invaluable to me and is greatly appreciated.
Mr K W.
