Celebrating 40 Years of Service: The McKinstry Company’s Commitment to Clients and Community

As The McKinstry Company celebrates 40 years, we reflect on a legacy of dedication to our clients and the communities we serve across Scotland. Founded in October 1984, the firm has grown from a single-practitioner operation into a leading legal practice with 40 staff members across Ayr, Girvan, and Dalry.


Growing Across Ayrshire


Over the past four decades, The McKinstry Company has expanded organically and through key acquisitions, most recently integrating the well-established North Ayrshire firm, James Patrick & Muir, in 2022. This growth strengthens our ability to serve a diverse client base, including individuals, businesses, and community organisations.


Reflecting on the firm's evolution over the past four decades, Managing Partner, Robert Honeyman remarked,


"Our continued success is rooted in the hard work and dedication of our colleagues, along with the loyalty of our clients. We are incredibly grateful to everyone who has supported us on this journey, and we remain committed to providing the highest level of service to our clients and contributing positively to the communities we serve."


Building Lasting Client Relationships


Our “Law Firm for Life” philosophy prioritises lasting partnerships over transactional services, offering comprehensive legal support at every stage of clients' lives and business ventures. From property law and family issues to wills, estates, and corporate advice, we are committed to professional, practical, reliable support, making us a trusted partner for clients across Ayrshire and beyond.

Celebrations and Community Engagement


This anniversary isn’t just about business milestones; it’s about our team, clients, and community. To mark the occasion, we hosted a gala at Lochgreen House Hotel, celebrating with loyal clients whose support has been integral to our journey. Our team also enjoyed a commemorative trip to Malaga, strengthening the close bonds that drive our success.


In gratitude for our community, we’re partnering with Ayrshire Cancer Support, Diabetes UK, and RNLI Girvan over the next year. From charity events to fundraising challenges, we aim to make a meaningful impact, continuing our tradition of giving back. 

 

Looking to the Future



As The McKinstry Company looks forward to the next chapter in its history, the firm's leadership remains committed to innovation, growth, and the continued provision of exceptional service to its clients.


As The McKinstry Company marks 40 years of success, it does so with a profound sense of gratitude to its clients, colleagues, and the local community. The firm’s journey over the past four decades has been one of growth, adaptation, and commitment to excellence.

Here's to another 40 years of success, service, and community engagement!
