Quick and efficient basic will

The joint mirror wills were carried out quickly and efficiently. However after completion, we became aware, having spoken to others, that there were some additional clauses which we would have benefitted from including. We wish that these options had been suggested as possibilities and discussed with us at the outset.

Completion of forms was easy via the on-line portal. Upload of documents worked well as did the digital signature. Easy to contact Abi, and her response was very quick.

Something good something not so good

Every thing was going great until it came to Trustees signing a bunch of documents. The accompanying letter was brief and to the point but it didn't explain what was required in sufficient detail. This caused confusion and delays. I felt the need to contact a senior manager.

Amazing experience!

We’ve had a phenomenal experience with Lyons Bowe throughout our first house purchase. Maisie initially assisted us in the new instructions team, and she was incredibly efficient, always on the ball and ready to answer any questions we had. Laura Walker, our main point of contact, was absolutely amazing – we always knew exactly where we stood and how the transaction was progressing. Having Laura at the end of the line truly made us feel at ease. We honestly cannot thank Laura enough.
Now working with Beth in the Exchange and Completions team, we've continued to receive excellent support. Beth has been fantastic, keeping us informed and helping us through the final stages.
Overall, our experience with Lyons Bowe has been brilliant. Their communication has been top-notch, something they should be very proud of. We also loved the app updates, which kept everything seamless.
Thank you, Lyons Bowe!

Initially the speed and ease of contact was excellent. There were a few teething troubles with contact once the legal team were assigned but they were soon ironed out and from then on I had absolutely no complaints. Queries were dealt with swiftly and the team were very helpful and professional. Highly recommended. I will definitely use Lions Bowe again in the future.

Great throughout the whole process, the app makes things a lot easier and gives a lot of visibility of the process. Marco was very helpful throughout, was responsive and communicated well. Would recommend if you are also thinking of buying/selling a property.

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.
