Kaylee was so good explaining things to me as I found it too much to read every line of all the paper work involved.

Excellent service

We have been through 9 months of legal battle in order to safeguard our granddaughter. Rachel and Caroline have been there every step of the way and have provided professional, non-judgememtal advice and guidance as well as support through some difficult times. Their efficiency and responsiveness has been excellent and we couldn't have asked for more. We will definitely be returning to them should we need any further assinstance legally. I have already recommended them to someone else.

Excellent service!

It was a pleasure to deal with Stewart. Straight forward, helpful and offered great guidance. Explained anything I wasn't sure of in a clear and concise manner.
Would highly recommend Stuart to anyone dealing with a sale of land.

Joanne Thomas was unfailingly patient, knowledgeable and helpful as we pushed through a property sale and two purchases. A rock at what could have been a stressful time. Thank you Jo!

Selling my home

Lanyon Bowdler have been super-efficient and helpful in the selling of my home. Emails were answered very quickly, usually the same day and any complications dealt with, with knowledge and expertise. Although the whole process did take a while I think this is now the norm. LB kept it as straightforward as possible and I would happily use them again in the future.

From my very first call to this firm I knew this isn’t the right firm for me. Is my solicitor working for me or their fee? It’s clear what matters most to this firm! The arrogance I had to listen to was unbelievable - must be a really rich business who don’t need customers!
