Thank you James Jones, Hereford Branch

This review is for a different branch.

Having used Lanyon Bowdler over the years, we found the Hereford and Ludlow branch to be very helpful, understanding and accommodating to our needs. Having been recommended to James Jones (Hereford Branch) on property selling matters. We found James on two separate occasions to be very efficient and understanding of our properties. During the sales he as always given us due diligence, support and contact was only made when there was something to report,which we liked and was not time wasting. We would like to thank James and we would not hesitate to recommend him and we will be using him again in the future.

House sale

This review is for a different branch.

I would like to say a very big thank you to Sara Harris for her professionalism, kindness & compassion shown to us, whilst dealing with the sale of our late Father's house.
It has been a privilege & a pleasure to have Sara working for us, she has been extremely approachable, a delight to talk with & very efficient in all aspects. We were astounded by how super fast, papers & neccessary documents were put in place & completed. The service we have received is the best I've ever come across! I will most certainly be highly recommending Sara Harris to family & friends because I've never known a lady with such an outstanding work ethic!

Thank you so very much!

Pamela Edwards.

Seems Pricey

This review is for a different branch.

We wanted some minor changes to our wills which LB drew up some time ago. The charge was going to be over £1200 so we wrote our own codicils to the existing will which cost us nothing.

Excellent service.

This review is for a different branch.

Karen Ross at Ludlow handled our conveyancing and she has been highly efficient, friendly and supportive during a long and protracted sale. She has given us not only a friendly ear but great advice too.
I would have given her more than 5 stars if I could and wouldn’t hesitate to use her again.
