Maghera firm Mallon & Co expands

Maghera solicitors’ firm Mallon & Co has taken over Coleraine-based Rafferty & Boyle.

“Taking over an existing firm is a bit like running a marathon,” said Joe Mallon (pictured, right) who heads Mallon & Co. "You have to put in a lot of hard work and effort before the race even starts.

"Fortunately, Paul and Fionnuala Boyle have helped us to make a very seamless transition,” he added.

'Sterling reputation'

Mallon’s brother-in-law Enda McKaigue (pictured, left), who is a director of the firm, said that Mallon & Co had taken over a company with “a sterling reputation”, and was keen to build on those solid foundations.

“Our company is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, and Rafferty & Boyle has been in Coleraine for 40 years,” he said.

Mallon & Co has been operating at its Castlerock Road premises in Coleraine since the start of April.

A general practice firm, it covers residential conveyancing, matrimonial, wills, estate-planning and litigation.
