I recently closed the sales of my first home with the help of McKenna & Co Solicitors and the entire experience is super! Lisa and Rachael were so helpful and supportive during the entire process.They provided very clear instructions for what I needed to do, and followed up with vendor solicitors/bank very closely. I'd really recommend McKenna & Co Solicitors.

Before I can really give a review of Lisa McKenna’s skills as a solicitor, I need to come clean about a few things. My wife and I bought our first home and enlisted Lisa’s services. We had no idea what we were doing. We approached the process with a lot of anxiety and misplaced emotion. We were a bit of a mess to be honest, and that was amplified 10x by a lot of confusion coming from the estate agent-side of the transaction. Enter Lisa. She helped us understand the process. She answered our questions. She gave us valuable context to understand our situation. She was patient and kind with us. And in the end the deal went well and we now own a house we love. I can honestly say that our deal would have fallen through had it not been for Lisa’s calm, her patience, her experience and expertise, and her kindness. There are lots of good reasons to pick McKenna and Co Solicitors. Ours ended up being the sanity and care that she brought to the table.

Communication was consistently clear and timely, ensuring we were always well-informed and confident in the process. Their expertise and dedication made what could have been a stressful experience remarkably smooth. We are incredibly grateful to the entire team and wouldn't hesitate to utilize their services again in the future.

Lisa and her team were fantastic to work with and closely supported us throughout the purchase of our first home. Their professionalism, communication and knowledge made what is ultimately a very complicated process feel simple. Whenever we had a question or something unexpected arose, they were immediately available to help us solve the issue. We're so grateful to them and would recommend them to anyone purchasing a home in Dublin.

I've done a few switcher mortgages and this was the easiest by far. This was down to Lisa's excellent communication and we managed to close the mortgage in under 4 weeks. Fees were very competitive aswell. Would highly recommend - 5 stars from me.

FAQ's About Swearing

What is an affidavit and why do I need to swear it?

An affidavit is a written statement set out in the form of a declaration for use as evidence in court proceedings. You must swear or affirm the truthfulness of its contents before a solicitor or a commissioner for oaths, as it serves as your testimony under oath.

What is the difference between an oath and a statutory declaration?

An oath is a verbal promise to tell the truth, often made with a hand on a holy book, used in legal contexts where solemnity is required. A statutory declaration is a written statement declared to be true in the presence of an authorised witness, used outside of court settings such as property transactions or certain formal declarations.

How quickly can I get an appointment for swearing a document?

We strive to accommodate our clients as quickly as possible. For urgent requirements, we can often arrange appointments on short notice. Contact our office to discuss your specific needs and schedule an appointment.

What do I need to bring to my appointment for swearing a document?

You should bring the document that needs to be sworn, a valid form of identification (such as a passport or driver’s license), and any exhibits referenced in the document. Please ensure all parts of your document are complete before your appointment to avoid any delays.

Can I swear a document if I am not a client of McKenna & Co Solicitors?

Yes, we can assist with swearing documents for non-clients. However, we recommend that anyone seeking such services contacts us beforehand to confirm the specifics and ensure that we can accommodate your needs.

What are the costs involved in swearing a document?

The costs for swearing documents are nominal and regulated. Typically, the fee is £5 for the oath and £2 for each attachment. For more detailed pricing, including notarisation and certification of documents, please contact our office directly.

What if I do not wish to swear on a religious text?

At McKenna & Co Solicitors, we respect all personal beliefs. If you prefer not to use a religious text, you can make an affirmation, which is a legally binding declaration made without reference to a religious text.

Is there any preparation required on my part before swearing a document?

It is important that you review your document thoroughly before the appointment to ensure that all information is accurate and complete. Any errors discovered after swearing must be rectified with a new document and another swearing process, which can incur additional costs.

Can McKenna & Co Solicitors certify copies of my documents?

Yes, we can certify copies of most documents as true copies of the original. However, certain documents, such as birth, death, and marriage certificates, must be certified by the issuing authority. Please bring the original documents for verification.

What if I need a document notarised?

While we do not have a Notary Public on staff, we can facilitate an introduction to a local Notary Public who can assist with notarising your documents, particularly those needed for international use.
