Why 66/100, and not 100?
The points below are not deducted: they are not yet awarded, for lack of a public source to check them. Payotte neither estimates nor invents any data.
- Local anchoring in Belfast incomplete. The establishment in Belfast is counted (8 points). Missing: pages of the firm's website about Belfast, the number of deals completed in Belfast in the last twelve months, the firm's working languages or speciality. A figure such as the number of deals completed in an area only exists at the firm.
- No checkable distinction found (award, press mention, publication, association). Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
- Regulator stated without an identifier. The firm's website names the Law Society of Northern Ireland, without a number you can check yourself.
Frequently asked questions
Which firm does Payotte select as conveyancer in Belfast?
Payotte selects McKenna & Co. Solicitors as conveyancer in Belfast, with a score of 66/100 (partial · below the 70/100 threshold).
Do I have to use a solicitor?
GOV.UK says you can do your own conveyancing, though a legal professional normally handles it.
Is a licensed conveyancer the same as a solicitor?
Not the same regulator or title. The CLC says a licensed conveyancer can do everything a solicitor can in a conveyancing transaction.
How does Payotte choose this firm?
Payotte selects a single firm per trade and per area, scored out of 100 points from public data. The public grid has five criteria: Google reviews (35 points), age of the company (30), checkable regulator or register (15), local anchoring (15) and bonus (5). Companies only, never individuals.
Can a firm pay to be ranked?
No. The ranking is never paid for. No firm can buy its place or its recommendation. Payotte is free, with no advertising and no commission.
How can I check this firm's regulator?
The regulator or register is declared on the firm's website; Payotte does not read the register on your behalf. Check it with the official body: Law Society of Northern Ireland, find a solicitor. The company number NI608357 can be checked at Companies House.
What does the score of 66/100 mean?
It is an editorial assessment by Payotte, not an official label. This score is below the 70/100 threshold: the listing is partial, as some data could not be recorded.
Do you run this firm? Correct or complete your listing.
The score is public, criterion by criterion. Up to 15 points are not yet awarded, for lack of a public source. We need, from the firm:

- up to 5 pts — a checkable distinction of the firm: award, press mention, publication, professional association
- up to 3 pts — the registration or membership number shown on the firm's website, which the reader can check with the Law Society of Northern Ireland
