Property boundary dispute

5

We had a dispute with a neighbour re the boundary line.
Charlotte gave great advice, support and key recommendations on how to progress the matter concerned. We followed her advice and it is all now resolved amicably. She provided such excellent service, listened to our situation and provided such great clarity for next steps. In addition her knowledge of the intricacies of property law were clearly evident.

Thank you all so much. Your help, support and advice was so appreciated and I can now sleep again peacefully 🙏🏽.

Excellent, professional service

5

We had a sale of shares which were unforeseen and seemed daunting initially. We searched around and gave a call to FBC Manby Bowdler LLP and this was a phone call we could not be happier that we made. Initially Ann took our details and directed us to the wonderful Charlotte. Charlotte maintained a brilliant, professional outlook and despite us feeling erratic at times she kept us grounded and offered great advice whilst being friendly and firm in conversation which was very much what was required. Once Valuations were agreed we worked alongside Tracy and Jaspreet. Jaspreet in particular was heavily involved and offered an impressive appetite to resolve our issues at the earliest convenience which was appreciated by all. We were offered what we believed to be the best options which suited us and not what would make a solicitor the most money, this gave us a huge trust in all the advice and subsequent decisions made.

Great thanks are due to Charlotte for the time taken to understand our requirements , for her diligence and a sagely advice as to the practical and realistic outcome. Those outcomes were reached and in many ways exceeded within the time and cost envelope initially suggested

From start to finish the process of opening a case through to conclusion is carried out with detail and great communication. We have used FBC Manby Bowdler on a number of occasions and the dealings are always consistent. We would not hesitate to use them in the future or recommend to others.

Charlotte went above and beyond to rectify the litigation issue on my behalf, checking all avenues to pursue and explained everything well throughout the process. She kept me in the loop via emails and phonecalls which I really appreciated as I wasn't local. Very professional but also friendly and helpful which is just as important.

Having received a number of penalty motoring notices for my number plated Peugeot in an area I had never driven, it was obvious someone had cloned my plate. I had never been in that position before and I had been at a loss at how to handle it. As the correspondence continued up to a likely fine, Many Bowdler helped me deal with the case and I was pleased with the outcome.

H & S Case

5

Whilst I have over many years used a number of solicitors with your company and never been disappointed this is the first occasion that we have used Charlotte Clode for a very serious H & S accident at on of our group companies. From our initial meeting she put everyone immediately at ease we have all been extremely impressed with her professional approach and grasp of the subject matter. Its given everyone a lift knowing how well we are being represented in what are very difficult circumstances for the company.
