Working for Lyons Bowe has been nothing other than an absolute pleasure. From the get-go I have had so much support from so many different people within the firm. No one is ever too busy to help. I thought working remotely would be difficult however our daily team meetings and catch ups with various people really makes it feel like you are working from an office. I have not for one moment regretted making the decision to join the Lyons Bowe Team.

This is the first time we've sold and bought concurrently and we cannot thank Lucinda Strydom enough for the guidance she has provided along the way! We've been kept informed at every stage and any message or query has been promptly replied to.
I had the pleasure of working with Simone during the legal stage of my house purchase, and she was absolutely fantastic. She was consistently agile, responsive, and efficient-always quick to follow up and provide clarity when needed. Her professionalism and dedication made a potentially stressful process feel much more manageable.
The team at Lyons Bowe have been great, replying promptly to any questions and always helpful. The progress updates throughout the process, has been very helpful and really keeps you informed as to where you are within the timeline.
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....
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.
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.
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.
Everything was done quickly and efficiently and the app means you are kept informed every step of the way. Thank you.
