Elsie was very good dealing with my fathers Will

which was a very upsetting time for me to deal with. It took a long time but dealing with COVID around we had to be patient.

Lyons Bowe dealt with my late mothers Will, Estate (including conveyancing) & Grant of Probate

in a professional manner. Although the probate took over six months (due to Covid) and the sale of the house was held up, this was not due to Lyons Bowe. The actual fees were value for money and staff approachable .

Clear, prompt and active.

LB dealt with the Probate for our mothers estate, on a "Grant only" basis. All of our queries were answered, e mails were responded to, and the process made clear (we are first time Probate clients!) The time scale was made clear and the whole thing delivered well within the stated time frame. I was responsible for collecting all the information, and the format was described to me well. It was a straight forward job, and something that felt challenging and complicated turned out to be achievable. For "estates" that are reasonably straight forward and uncomplicated, I would suggest that this is the way to go!

A huge thank you to Elsie Lyford and her team in the Corporate and Commercial department of Barcan & Kirby solicitors for their help in selling our dental practice in Cirencester, Gloucestershire. The process is indeed a daunting one but Elsie dealt with the buyer’s solicitor, the NHS, the CQC, and guided us through every step from initial introductions to completion with calm professionalism and expertise. I would highly recommend Elsie Lyford and her team at Barcan & Kirby to help sell your business. Gordon Hood Cirencester.

B&K are amazingly supportive, hard working and helpful. A cost effective team who are knowledgeable, pragmatic, friendly and flexible - what more could you want from a solicitor?

The service was very responsive and flexible while the work was being scoped at short notice, and B+K were completely clear around expected outcomes. Thank you again (used you in October/November 2023 and was equally happy)
