5* Review

We have recently just purchased a new home at used LFBB. Nicola at LFBB was excellent and made moving home as stress free as possible. Would highly recommend Nicola and the firm itself. Reception staff were also extremely helpful and friendly. Thanks Nicola and everyone at LFBB.

Amazing solicitors

I recently contacted LFBB solicitors for advise re loss of an original document.
From the day I contacted Daniel he was friendly approachable very knowledgable and extremely skilled in explaining things in a way that was easy to understand. He offered a solution and from then on his communication was fantastic and he replied to all my questions very quickly. If in the future I need legal advise I wouldnt hessitate to contact Daniel again and would recomend him.
I would just like to add that the office staff were very lovely and friendly.

Excellent service

Thank you to Mr Clay for his help and advice drawing up a repayment agreement mid-way through a verbal loan agreement. He was very clear setting out potential pitfalls and the realistic reach of the agreement. He quoted and charged a very reasonable price for this service and was efficient on it’s delivery.
We would have no hesitation in recommending him and would use his services again should we so need.

Hooley v Owston Estate

Mr Clay rescued my case brilliantly. I could not have asked for a more professional or respectful
service. Very, very grateful for the successful outcome.
We would always recommend your services in the future.

The staff I dealt with were so friendly, helpful, kind and most importantly professional.

We would like to use you in the future for other services, but my Dad being disabled - location
may be an issue.

Thank you to you all

Calm conveyancing

My slightly complicated sale and purchase were both handled by Nicola Stone with exemplary attention to detail, timeliness and accuracy. Her good humour and communication skills helped me through the process and kept me calm! Highly recommended.
