Philip Cowell came recommended via a friend to legally take me through a divorce. The recommendation proved to be a good one as Philip's years of experience, his listening ear, his skill for dotting the i's and crossing the t's made a very sad and worrying time just about bearable knowing that the outcome of my future was in capable hands.

FBC Manby Bowdler recently completed the conveyancing on the purchase of a commercial property and the subsequent Lease for the letting of the unit. For both matters, their service has been outstanding. I would recommend them highly.

Today we have completed on a house and we highly recommend Su at Shrewsbury for completing our conveyancing. Su has kept us updated at every critical point. Its not an easy process but we felt very confident in her work. She fought tooth and nail for us in the last 3 days especially as it became time critical. Exceptional. !
