Donna Smy – Donna did a brilliant job with all the legal requirements relating to the completion/closing of matter. She offered good advice and provided a very professional legal service. I found her to be very approachable and communication was regularly provided to me by Donna relating to the progress of all the requirements which had to be fulfilled. I had total trust in Donna and her assistant. Her professional help and advice helped me a lot personally, during a difficult time. I would not hesitate to recommend Donna Smy to anyone who requires legal services, and I will certainly use her services again in the future when/if I require them. Thank you!
