This is the first time I have used the services of MBM/Cat McLean and to-date I am very impressed.

I have recently become involved in an action with a major bank, and, anyone who has ever been in a similar situation, will know that taking on a large financial institution is always going to be a David and Goliath type battle, but in Cat McLean I feel I have someone representing me who knows how to throw a stone or two.

We have had some early success, which lifted my spirit and made me feel that perhaps the big boys don't always win, one thing about Cat was the way she enjoyed our little victory, she enjoyed it just as much as I did, she was right there!!

There is still a long way to go, but I think that with Cat representing me I am in good hands.

“We are very satisfied with the MBM Banking Team’s performance in our case. We are impressed with their complete understanding of this problem and very comprehensive explanations. They were very thorough and picked up the thread of this somewhat convoluted case very quickly. We are more than happy for our endorsement to be used."

“It is very hard not to sound clichéd, but at MBM I have found very approachable individuals, true to their status as people in whom one can place one’s trust. They talk to you not down to you and no matter what, from senior partners down, if you can’t speak immediately on the phone, they get back to you very quickly. The fact that direct dial numbers are available in their official material says it all. MBM’s Banking Team deserve great success as they do deliver a truly five star service.”

"I would recommend the services of MBM Commercial to anyone or organisation that have issues with their banking institute. Cat MacLean and David Calder have been brilliant. My case is complicated. Cat has taken ownership of my problem as if it were her own. Cat and David bounced the problems about and applied the law with the assistance of Counsel; they delivered a result which saved the day. Whilst my case is not over yet, I have confidence in the team. MBM took on my case with a matter of days before going to court. Cat worked very hard indeed. Despite other law firms advising me to throw in the towel Cat and the team trawled the paper work and found an avenue in which to build a barrier of defence which saved the day! For this I am very grateful and would not hesitate to use their services again and recommend them in the highest terms. They truly saved my life!"

“David and the staff at MBM were on hand throughout what was a difficult and complex case, with practical, straightforward advice and suggestions. Unlike many lawyers I have used, MBM from the outset were looking for the best solution to the dispute, rather than simply the most time consuming one. Aided by counsel who was recommended by them we eventually won the case along with substantial damages”

“As well as being very thorough and professional, Cat brings a personal element to a case, taking it on as if it were her own problem. She communicated complex matters to me clearly and saw the big picture whilst dealing dilligently with the important details. Cat also has shown the ability to identify exactly the right person for the task when specialist assistance was called for in my case.”

“In a recent situation requiring legal advice and assistance, MBM Commercial, and Cat in particular, provided us with the feeling of complete assurance that only comes from someone that has sufficient experience and ability to be entirely on top of the process. Cat was extremely quick to grasp the essential elements of the situation and then had the care, diligence and skill to look after our interests completely. This resulted in a rare satisfaction for an SME business owner – the feeling of money well spent on legal fees!”

“The Edinburgh Academy seeks legal advice from Iain on a regular basis. The advice given is always to a high standard. Instruction in litigation matters can sometimes be complex and difficult. Iain has always made the School aware of the consequences of any particular course of action, whether it is good or bad of which the Academy has been most grateful.”
