Excellence at all levels

I worked with Hannah Read at Lyons Bowe Solicitors for my recent divorce. I highly recommend her. She is professional, caring, thorough, efficient, knowledgeable and wise. She is straight-forward, direct, and not only knows the legal aspects, but also understood where I was coming from and what I wanted and was able to hold the balance with me. I am impressed, pleased, and grateful. This was a significant life experience for me, it mattered a lot, and I was very aware the whole way through how much I appreciated having Hannah on my team.

Wasn’t what I expected as you are passed to different teams during the sales process. However it was a straight forward sale and went through fairly quickly.

Felt unsupported, vague contact after initial consultation

I felt I paid a phenomenal amount for very little support and guidance. I did not feel my interests were best represented or that I was being looked out for and guided and even had to rewrite some documentation due to wording that would upset the respondent and promote disagreements and spelling errors. I am still not confident the final outcome was best and wish I had represented myself

I do not often write reviews. I worked with Hannah Read at Lyons Bowe Solicitors for my recent divorce. I highly recommend her. She is professional, caring, thorough, efficient, knowledgeable and wise. She is straight-forward, direct, and not only knows the legal aspects, but also understood where I was coming from and what I wanted and was able to hold the balance with me.

Buying or selling a house in our country is not made easy by our rules and regulations, however. Choose the right Solicitating firm and it makes it a site easier. We, my Wife and I, have found this so far with the firm of Lyons Bowe and we are confident that their professionalism will continue until conclusion. Thank you

Great service , very professional, what's so different is that they keep you upto date with exactly what's going on at every step of the way , unlike other solicitors I have used in the past , where I have had to keep chasing them. They are excellent, thank you so much , I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a solicitor.

Rachel's experience...

The initial process and onboarding is so organised and efficient. Sadly it falls down once you are allocated a solicitor. You can never get through to anyone, messages never get relayed. No one calls back and no one takes accountability. Unfortunately this process has been very painful and some of the people we have dealt with have been very rude. It was only us and the seller so things really shouldn’t have been so difficult.
Olivia has been very efficient at finally getting this over the line so I’d like to thank her for that. I wish everyone else had been like her.

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.
