Poor & inaccurate communication, slow progress

So far it’s been a very negative experience with Lyons Bowe. From initial issues recognising our deposit, to false information about the status of our checks (multiple times), timelines have not been stuck to at all. All other parties (mortgage, survey, sellers solicitors, estate agents, us as the buyers) have progressed quickly and everything continues to be held up by Lyons Bowe - being passed between hands and lack of accountability has also been very frustrating

So far so good

I like the portal as it’s straightforward and easy to use but more importantly the people at LB are helpful, friendly and efficient and l would use them again.

Completion Solicitor was fantastic

Our initial experience was not good, but once we moved over to the completion team we had a much better experience, this review is solely based on Josie Whiting and not our previous solicitor. Josie was fantastic, communicative and helpful.

Dear Mrs Heath. Thank you for your feedback and for taking the time to do so, I also thank you for your time today on the telephone. We are sorry that you did not feel your initial concerns were appropriately dealt with. I hope that the apology provided today was acceptable. I also thank you for the feedback left for Josie, that was very thoughtful Gemma Monday - Head of Property

Slow, admin errors, website account error

I was looking for an efficient local solicitor who I could trust to execute my Will and take the stress from my widow when the time comes. I paid by bank transfer early to show my intentions and speed the process. Days later a trainee solicitor finally called and we arranged for me to visit Frome office to sign the very simple Will. At the office I asked for a copy of my signed original - the office staff said the solicitor will send a copy later in day or next day. A week later - no copy had been sent then automated emails came through asking me to login and pay!

James's experience...

Too many different people dealing with the case and that meant that we didn't get responses and things fell through the gaps. For example the sale price was wrong on the contract weeks after this picked up and should have been corrected

Slow and never returned calls

We did not feel represented and we were unable to get hold of anyone. When they did return our calls, it would be at least 3 days later.

Quick and efficient

Everything about the process so far has been so quick, efficient and thorough. Having an app so that you can see exactly where you are in the process is really helpful too. Although my sale has not yet completed, the service thus far has been faultless.

Free Marie Curie last will.

It was done via “Teams” from home and no need to visit an office. I obviously had to prepare what I wanted, and easy to make some simple changes.

They are very familiar with Housing Mortgage legal advising. They check properly all the documents from both the parties and relevant information to clarify to what best suits for those property circumstances. The service is satisfactory for the fee they have collected. Happy for them to be part of my next house journey.
