ELP Arbuthnott McClanachan is an amalgamation of two long established Edinburgh law firms known for providing quality expert advice to their clients with a strong personal touch.

Both ELP Solicitors and Arbuthnott & McClanachan were specialist law firms who represented their clients in the areas of estate agency, conveyancing, wills, powers of attorney, and executries.  ELP Solicitors’ Employment Law Practice was also well known for providing specialist employment law advice and representation to employer and employee clients.

The partners of ELP Solicitors and Arbuthnott & McClanachan, Duncan McFadzean, Laura McFadzean, Bob Arbuthnott and Catherine McClanachan, decided to join forces with a view to providing their clients with an even better service across the city of Edinburgh and beyond.  As a result, ELP Arbuthnott McClanachan is able to provide expert advice and strength in depth, and our clients are safe in the knowledge that we are continuing our philosophy of offering the best possible advice direct to our clients from experienced specialist solicitors.  The quality of the advice we give and the strong personal relationship between our solicitors and our clients is paramount for us, and we believe that this adds real value for our clients.

ELP Arbuthnott McClanachan offer our clients experience and expertise in the following areas:

I have used the services of Duncan McFadzean of ELP Arbuthnott McClanachan Solicitors regarding a dispute with my employers. I found him to be exceedingly professional in all my dealings with him. He worked hard in achieving me a settlement agreement with my employers. This was despite some difficulties with an intransigent employer who was difficult to deal with. He kept me informed about all aspects of my dispute and helped resolve things with the minimum of delay. I would have no hesitation in recommending him or ELP Arbuthnott McClanachan to anyone in need of a good solicitor.

I was a Managing Director of an acquired business, going through a long protracted settlement agreement when I approached Duncan McFadzean and his ELP team at Arbuthnott McClanachan to take over my case as there had been an issue with the initial firm of lawyers I had engaged. Duncan very quickly got up to running speed with my case and managed it very pragmatically with great control. He judged his approach with me absolutely perfectly and always explained clearly and concisely, the different courses of action with his recommendations. I have used many different employment lawyers throughout the years, (both for the business and for myself), but have never found a more complete professional approach than the ELP Arbuthnott McClanachan experience. I cannot recommend their services enough. Simply fantastic, thank you!
Don’t go anywhere else, just use the ELP team at Arbuthnott McClanachan, great service and great results!

Barbara has been absolutely fantastic in drawing up our wills. She was the perfect combination of understanding our requirements alongside challenging our thinking to ensure we now have much more robust plans in place for our estate. It has given us both peace of mind knowing things are in order and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her services and that of ELP.

A highly efficient service from the team at ELP. Took the stress out of buying our property.

Thanks Barbara

I just wanted to thank you for your professional service you provided me during what is a very difficult time for me. Your experience, diligence and knowledge have resulted in a larger settlement of which I am very grateful . I also appreciated your patience and understanding of my situation. I would have no hesitation in recommending your services to others.

We found the service from ELP to be excellent and very efficient. From the first interview to talk through what we needed in the will to the actual signing was only 10 days. The whole process was explained clearly and we were encouraged to confront the very difficult and emotive issues that are involved in drawing up a will to ensure that all eventualities were covered and our wishes respected.
