Great Service

Dealt with Abi at Lyons Bowe for the first stage of our purchasing journey and she has been absolutely brilliant! Almost unheard of that you'd get update emails without chasing yourself, but not Abi, she would send me email updates without me asking and was very friendly and approachable throughout. Really highly recommend.

Support in Clearing Help To Buy

It was a pleasure working with Lyons Bowe, as they handled my case with utmost professionalism and attention to detail. I am truly pleased with their service and would highly recommend them within my network. A special thanks to Katarina Donovan and Zoe Graham for their prompt responses and unwavering support - you both have been an absolute star throughout the process. Your efficiency and dedication made all the difference! Thanks once again.

Disappointing experience

We had to pull off our offer after getting a very bad survey. Work of our solicitors was up until that point professional, although quite dry and detached. They never really gave us any advice or answered in a personal way any of our questions; they seemed to be reading a script. We've been waiting for weeks just to get an invoice for the services provided after pulling off our offer. Not a single word from our solicitor after that, not even to try to keep us as customers on any future attempts on purchasing a house.

They also sent us several emails asking us to leave a review of their services very early in the process, while there was still many things to be done. They haven't sent us now any of those links. I feel that they are trying to get unearned positive reviews early in the process to increase their score, which I think isn't ethical or shows the reality of their services.

Won't use their services again.

Holly's experience...

Very frustrated with the service we received- you are not allocated 1 solicitor but instead passed across 3 different teams and get someone different replying to you every time. They have been very slow to respond to emails- even on the week of exchange which has made the whole process of buying our first property quite stressful.

A very disappointing service, with a few exceptions such as Lauren.

Some shocking mistakes made by both a solicitor and legal assistant(s).

More solicitor contact, with continuity, would be one improvement.

About this branch

Description

When we set up Lyons Bowe in 2014, we were driven by a mix of frustration and desire. Frustration at the number of firms that didn’t share the values that we felt were most important and our desire to give clients the kind of service that you told us you wanted. Our core values underpin our entire service and lie at the heart of everything we offer. As a modern law firm, we pride ourselves on representing these core values – both in what we do and how we do it.
