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!

Probate Application Efficiently Handled
It became apparent that the application for probate would not be quite as straight forward as i had initially hoped. However, the whole matter was handled very efficiently by Elsie and her team. Clear explanation and prompt communication meant that I was always aware of how things were progressing through to a satisfactory conclusion.
I would recommend.
