Best experience ever!

I cannot recommend Lyons Bowe highly enough. The whole process, from initial contact right through to completion, was clear, thorough, easy and smooth. We were handed from team to team as our sale progressed, always with a clear introduction from our key contact person. Emails were picked up promptly, and replies were always clear and helpful. We were selling from abroad and slightly concerned about how that would affect the sale, but we were in very safe hands with Lyons Bowe. Thank you!

Excellent service and super friendly!

Last year, I sold a flat in Bath and Lyons Bowe provided all legal including conveyancing support. I'm about to sell two additional properties in Bath and I have returned to Lyons Bowe as a result of their excellent service and support. My work has been through the Frome Office, where Elle Box and her team are super friendly and really efficient. I highly recommend!

I am only in the early stages of selling my property but would thank and praise Abi in particular for her fast paced and efficient work in progressing this matter. If the rest of the process goes as well, I will be delighted.

Absolutely fantastic!

Lauren,

We cannot thank you enough for making the whole experience as clear and as smooth as possible. From someone who has never been in the middle of the chain before, Lauren was clear and thorough throughout the whole process. She answered all my questions (including the ones that were probably daft) and was always at the end of a phone to clarify anything I wasn’t 100% on. She was so efficient with communication and even better with all enquiries, asking questions I would never of even thought of, as well as asking other solicitors for more information on answers received.

Lauren, Thank you for everything you have done for us.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Morgan from Lyon’s Bowe and it was a pleasant experience. She was agile with replying to our inquiries and helpful throughout the beginning of our purchase. Definitely recommend.

I took advantage of the 'Will Aid' scheme and Lyons Bowe to produce a Will for myself. The whole process was surprisingly easy and efficient. Full marks to the team at Lyons Bowe (Shepton Mallet and at Frome) for their professionalism, friendliness and excellent service.

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.

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.
