Exceptional Legal Representation

I would highly recommend Lanyon Bowdler and in particular Chloe Williams for her professionalism and approach ability at all times. She was professional and compassionate. Which led to the smooth and successful completion of my house sale. Thank you Chloe for your wonderful approach.

My Experience

Very professional, friendly and a pleasure to deal with. Nothing was too much trouble, for instance when I asked to visit the office to sign documents instead of signing them online. Seems like a small issue but it’s nice to deal with a person. Many thanks.

Speedy and Efficient

Although the complete process took around two years to finish due to probate and land registry issues, Lanyon Bowdler were helpful, patient and professional in all my dealing with them. They offered advice when required and responded quickly to any queries I had. I would definitely use them again for any legal work.

Julie handled our late Dad’s affairs with kindness and with respect. She had the human touch with what was a very difficult time for us as a family. She and Nicola kept in touch and offered advice even when the probate part had been completed. Thank you.
Nicola was also very polite and was a pleasure to deal with.

Sale of Property and Probate

This was dealing with the sale of my deceased mother’s property and dealing with the estate through probate. The whole process was seamless and well above my expectations. It was dealt with in a professional and efficient way by both the house sale team and Vanessa Ford dealing with the probate.

Professional service with occasional minor clerical errors

Probate service is professional and to a good standard. We dealt with the Legal Assistant, except for the initial consultation with one of the Partners.
Communication is good in terms of updating us of progress and responding very quickly indeed to our questions. A lot of the tardiness was due to us (the clients) trying to make decisions!

There were two of us acting as Executors and our names got mixed up a couple of times on correspondence, but that had no detrimental effect.
