David McGuire

On behalf of both of us may I thank you sincerely for all your advice and efforts on this matter. Without your help we honestly would have been lost as to how to deal with the situation. Many thanks.

David is extremely knowledgeable and professional. He has worked diligently to ensure the best possible outcome on the cases that he has worked on for us. He is extremely supportive, straight-talking and approachable and his assistance has been invaluable. I would not hesitate in recommending his services to anyone.

"The speed of response has been exceptional. Litigant correspondence is reviewed and provided to us along with draft responses in timescales that have consistently exceeded my expectations over a period of many months. There is a willingness to take feedback and make modifications which serves to create a strong sense of teamwork between client and advisor. David McGuire deserves specific note in this regard."

David was brilliant; always made sure that we understood the risks and implications of what action he took. He also reminded us of the consequences cost-wise, as in if an action that we take wanted to take and if the outcome would be worth the cost. There was fantastic communication that met our expectations. I asked for open communication when we first started and he certainly delivered that. We had been wronged by our previous solicitor by not understanding where we were coming from of the point of the suit, as he thought it was a losing battle. David won the battle for us and we are absolutely pleased.

I do appreciate everything that you have done, I could have not done this without you.

David was our contact at Weightmans when we had a probate issue. We had contacted a number of legal firms before and after discussing our issue with David. David stood out as really listening and understanding our issue more than the other reputable firms we met in a very professional and personal manner. Subsequently we chose Weightmans and we were not disappointed. The issue was assessed, not in our favour unfortunately, in a very commercial, timely and professional way including pulling in additional resources where necessary to provide a clear outcome on our case.

"I have worked with David McGuire on a contentious probate matter (acting for different parties). The matter involved acrimonious disputes with very difficult executors, including a professional executor. David worked very hard and showed great professionalism and patience to secure a settlement and distribution of the estate to our respective clients."

David was an amazing solicitor, always there when we needed him and providing very open and clear communication. We wouldn’t have won this case without him.

David has provided me with advice in an extremely complex and emotive trust dispute. David is highly knowledgeable, his advice has been clear and concise and he responds quickly to issues that I have raised. All the work has been of an exceptionally high standard. Moreover, he has provided understanding and empathy around the situation, whilst also being honest and realistic about my case. I have consistently felt that I am in a safe pair of hands in what has been a very difficult time.

"I have been instructed as a barrister by Weightmans on one matter, a complex will construction dispute. I have found the team to be very efficient and professional. My instructions were provided by David McGuire who has shown excellent technical understanding and an appreciation of the tactical considerations affecting the client’s position."
