Verity McKay
Consultant Solicitor

I qualified as a solicitor in 2016 and have accumulated over 10 years of experience in Private Client law. Throughout my career, I have developed a strong focus on Wills, Lasting Powers of Attorney, Estate Administration, and Trusts (including establishment, advice, and management). I have a passion for creative problem-solving, and I am dedicated to helping clients navigate complex legal issues with understanding and precision.

I value collaboration across different specialisms and enjoy working alongside colleagues from other areas of law to ensure that my clients receive holistic and integrated services. My approach is always client-focused, with a strong emphasis on providing tailored, empathetic advice that reflects each client’s unique situation.

Client Feedback:

"Professional and efficient."

"She was very friendly, approachable and knowledgeable. She was also very patient explaining all details to us and was very efficient throughout the process."

"Verity made the process very smooth. We have a very difficult situation and Verity made it very clear."

These quotes reflect my commitment to delivering a service that is not only professional but also compassionate and considerate. I believe that every client deserves personalised attention, and I take pride in listening to their needs and concerns. I strive to ensure that my clients understand their legal options and feel confident in the decisions they make. For me, it's about making the process as straightforward and stress-free as possible. I am always approachable and work diligently to find solutions that align with my clients' specific circumstances, always with a focus on empathy and understanding.

Personal Interests:

Outside of my professional work, I am passionate about travel. I have been fortunate enough to explore the far corners of the earth, and it's one of the main reasons I chose to work with Setfords, as they allow me the flexibility to balance my career with my love for exploring.

I also have a love for performing in amateur musical theatre, which allows me to unwind and express my creativity. At home, I enjoy quieter hobbies such as reading, crafting, painting, and gardening, and am an avid animal and wildlife enthusiast.

I look forward to continuing to work with both private clients and professionals alike, offering expert legal advice with a compassionate approach. Please do not hesitate to reach out for more information.
