    Housing & Property

    Residential Property / Conveyancing

    I used FBC Manby Bowdler’s conveyancing service to sell my previous residential property and purchase the property that I was moving to. Throughout the entire process, my solicitor, Adam Opperman, was helpful, thorough and quick to respond to any queries that I had. From the outset, I was reassured by his attention to detail, the speed with which he actioned every stage of the process and the clarity of his explanations to my every query. Moving house is quite a stressful process, but FBC Manby Bowdler did everything to reduce that stress to a minimum. I shall definitely use this company again in the future should I need to and I shall recommend them to anyone needing conveyancing services at the very least. In fact, I have every confidence that the quality of all the legal services that they offer will match that of their conveyancing service.

    Excellent service from start to finish. Communication was clear and prompt, and I was kept informed at every stage without needing to chase. Everything was explained in plain English, which made a stressful process feel much more manageable. The team handled the transaction efficiently and professionally, and completion went through smoothly. I would definitely recommend them and use them again.

      I can not recommend Mohammed highly enough . All Of the stress and anxiety was taken away because we were lessened to, given clear guidance from the start and the fact that someone was always available to speak to. I always left our meeting far happier than when I arrived and I felt that my concerns were always listened to and addressed with empathy. I never felt like a client , I was always made to feel that we mattered. This is imperative when you are going through such a stressful. Should we ever find ourselves in a position to require legal representation then I would not hesitate and I would know for sure that we are in the best hands possible
