We sold our house recently via Lyons Bowe, and really couldn't have asked for a better service throughout.
Emma Leighton-Carey was always on hand to provide timely updates, and the whole process, which was potentially stressful and difficult, was made easy and carefree. We completed pretty much when we had wanted to from from day 1, despite a major hitch with the buyer.
Would 100% recommend to friends & family.

Thank you so much to Emma and her team for dealing with our house sale so efficiently. Emma was brilliant from start to finish and kept us informed at every stage. I couldn't ask for a better conveyancer and would recommend her to anyone who needs one.

I accept I have been out of the property buying loop for a long while. However, I cannot understand why conveyancing takes so long! Also cannot understand why there are never any updates. I am convinced the Solicitors leave things in their 'in trays' purposely to delay things. 6 months for a sale completion where both the seller and buyer have no chain!
I, as an idiot, have already instructed the solicitors to act on the purchase of my new property misguided I thought this would help speed things. I now wish I could stop this and instruct another firm.
Be advised I will not allow them to delay things at all. I will call, email daily to push this forward as without this input they will be as slow as ever. NO I WILL NOT RECOMMEDING THEM.

Really poor service, not answering email's, seemed to be off every friday/Monday did not keep me informed as to progress, very disappointed, I need to have 2 wills written up and I am intending to buy a property for rent and because of this I will not be using yourselves I understand the person in question was only a trainee but someone should have been over seeing.
A representative from Lyons Bowe responded to this review on 06 October, 2021:
Dear Kevin. We were sorry to read that you were disappointed with the outcome of your matter. We understand from Rachael that this transaction got off to a slow start as the other side appointed a new firm, which caused long delays from the outset, which we can appreciate must have been very annoying, and then a discrepancy with the title plan also took a long time to be agreed between the neighbour and buyer. However, despite Rachael having to prepare additional documents these were not charged to yourself. In respect of being kept informed we appreciate that each persons perception on this can be different, some clients would like more contact than others, however, having looked at the matter Rachael did keep you up to date as and when the situation changed and contact was required. Rachael does work part-time, as do some of our other staff. As a firm we actively encourage flexible working, however, if this is the case the fee earners hours are clearly stated in their email sign offs and with other staff details of who can be contacted in their absence clearly detailed. Regarding your comment on Rachael being a trainee, please rest assured that all of our trainees at Lyons Bowe are supervised as this is a basic requirement from the Law Society. In addition to this, as a firm that has held the LEXCEL accreditation for several years now (ever since applying in fact) , this is monitored on a regular basis by an external auditor and reported on accordingly if there are any breaches in this regard. Please do contact us if you would like to discuss further and in more detail. We want all our clients to have a good experience with us and return. If we do get anything wrong then we need to learn from those mistakes and we can only do so with constructive dialogue with our clients.

The whole experience with Lyons Bowe and Emma in particular was faultless.
Gone are the days of unanswered phone calls and ignored emails with other solicitors.
Emma and her team were on the ball with everything, super fast responses, clear and concise information updates and a record breaking turn around time from instruction to completion.
Thanks again guys!

Couldn’t knock our solicitors at all. Being a first time buyer, I didn’t know what to expect, except for what everyone says that solicitors are nightmares and you can’t get hold of them etc. This was not the case with Lauren & Laura. Sometimes I couldn’t quite believe how much they were contacting us and we were the ones who needed chasing up getting a response. Very friendly. Would definitely recommend and worth every penny. Thank you Lauren and Laura.

Emma could not have been more helpful. She was very professional, friendly and easy to deal with, quick to respond to any questions either by phone or email and could not have worked any harder to get us to exchange contracts when it looked like it wasn’t going to happen.

Olivia and Lesley handled two sales and one house purchase for us over the period of about 12 months. All communication was via phone or email and we were always able to speak directly to Olivia or Lesley. The online portal for monitoring progress is great. Many thanks to Olivia in particular for her consistent professionalism and patience!

We are in the initial stages of a purchase, but I can say that we are very impressed so far in the efficiency of Lyons Bowe. Tietia Shotton, a Legal Assistant of the company has replied to all our email queries within the hour, and we also receive online updates of every stage of the process. Highly recommended.

Lyons Bowe acted on our behalf with a sale and purchase of property. I found them to be professional, efficient and helpful. They kept us up to date with the transaction and chased the others in the chain when required. Their costs were very reasonable considering the work they put in. Would recommend Lyons Bowe

I should like to thank Robert Hann for his ongoing help and support he has provided throughout the sale of my property.
One of the most approachable and professional people I have ever had the good fortune to deal with and a true credit to his profession.
It it with great sadness that I am unable to work with the practice on my upcoming purchase - quite tearful in fact- but if ever there was an opertunity I would most definitely recommend Robert as a hard working, knowledgeable and conscientious legal guy. Wishing him and his team all the very best for the future.
MANY MANY THANKS.
Mike.

When we set up Lyons Bowe in 2014, we were driven by a mix of frustration and desire. Frustration at the number of firms that didn’t share the values that we felt were most important and our desire to give clients the kind of service that you told us you wanted. Our core values underpin our entire service and lie at the heart of everything we offer. As a modern law firm, we pride ourselves on representing these core values – both in what we do and how we do it.
