Very happy with the service provided by Elaine Townsend at Eric Bowes & Co . Communication was good. It was easy to speak to someone and everyone we spoke to was friendly and helpful. Emails were responded to quickly and we were kept updated. We would happily use this company again and recommend them to others.

I recently had a consultation with David Wade, and I must say, it provided me with more information and guidance than I have received from other solicitor firms in the past two months. David's expertise in family law is truly exceptional! He displayed remarkable patience and understanding regarding my situation and skilfully guided me through the complexities of family law processes. The legal advice and knowledge I gained from the session were simply astounding. I am incredibly grateful to David and his team for their outstanding services!

Collected on:
Had one of the worst experience with Eric Bowes (and particularly Elaine Townsend). They:
- Forgot about documents that we (as the buyers) had to repeatedly remind them about
- Didn’t reply to emails at all and ignored calls (eg we once only managed to get a reply to an email after more than 4 weeks)
- Rude and unhelpful when asked questions from a first time buyer
Overall, I wouldn’t recommend Eric Bowes, especially if your a first time buyer.

Elaine helped us buy our first home and she was great and very much on the ball. Pretty much all correspondence was through email which suited me and my husband as it’s very difficult to answer our phones at work. Definitely recommend!

David Wade is a great solicitor, he have given me great advice in preparation for the court case, how to prepare the questions, he have also pointed out how the court order have been poorly written, something that McKenzie friend simply didn't care about but is crucial as the court will than still expect you to assume that you should do something despite it not being even requested my the court and even blame you for that. Generally I highly recommend speaking with David to understand the court case and what needs to be done.

I have now used the services of Eric Bowes on 5 occasions for the sale of property within the family, and two occasions for purchasing property. Always efficiently and politely handled by Elaine Townsend. I would have no hesitation in recommending Eric Bowes for conveyancing.
