Buying or selling a property can be an exciting time, but it also comes with risks. One of the biggest concerns for home movers is the possibility of a transaction falling through after time and money have already been spent on legal fees, searches, and surveys. At Lyons Bowe, we understand this worry and that’s why we’re proud to offer the Abortive Pledge, an added layer of protection for our clients during the conveyancing process.
The Abortive Pledge is a protection scheme designed to cover your legal costs if your property transaction does not complete through no fault of your own. In other words, if your purchase or sale collapses due to circumstances beyond your control, the Abortive Pledge can reimburse you for certain expenses, giving you peace of mind from the start.
In England and Wales, around 1 in 3 property transactions fail before completion. This can leave buyers and sellers facing unexpected bills for legal work, searches, and mortgage fees. The Abortive Pledge offers reassurance by reducing the financial risk of a failed transaction.
At Lyons Bowe, we want our clients to move forward with confidence. By choosing us, you’re not just getting a team of experienced property solicitors you’re also gaining added protection against the unpredictable nature of the property market.

The Mirror Guy, Firm Review
Excellent service. Quietly attentive, sympathetic listeners, and efficient practitioners, all that a worried applicant could wish for. And especially unusual in this day and age....
Brian, Firm Review
Honestly I've never wanted to review solicitors before, they've been ok and have done their job at varying timescales. From the start, my partner and I have commented every single time when something happened how quick they are, and they're a delight to communicate with too! And their app is brilliant and has made things so much easier. We will use in the future and will not stop recommending.
Chris, Firm Review
I recently used Lyons Bowe Solicitors and had the pleasure of working with Holly as my point of contact. From start to finish, the service was outstanding. Holly was professional, approachable, and incredibly efficient - she kept me updated throughout the entire process and made everything feel smooth and stress-free.
Manuel, Firm Review
Rhea, and everyone so far at Lyons Bowe, have been truly fantastic. Excellent communication, chasing me rather than me chasing them, very pleasant in conversation and always ready to help. Highly recommend to anyone.
