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.

When we were sorting out the kids, I really felt heard and valued by the team. They listened to what I wanted and what was best for my children, which meant a lot.

Honestly, they were really supportive during my whole divorce. It was a horrible time, but I felt like they were on my side and explained everything so I understood it.

Prenuptial agreements are not automatically legally binding in England and Wales, but UK courts increasingly uphold them if they are fair, freely entered into, and meet legal standards. Lyons Bowe family solicitors draft robust prenuptial agreements that give your agreement the strongest chance of being upheld in court.
A prenuptial agreement can protect assets you bring into a marriage, such as property, inheritance, or a business. Lyons Bowe provides clear advice to help couples plan for the future and avoid disputes should the marriage break down.
Yes. Lyons Bowe’s family lawyers create bespoke agreements that reflect your financial situation and personal wishes. We ensure that your prenuptial agreement is comprehensive and compliant with UK family law principles.
To be taken seriously by the courts, a prenuptial agreement should be signed at least 28 days before the wedding. Lyons Bowe helps clients prepare agreements well in advance, giving both parties time to review the terms without pressure.
Yes. For a prenuptial agreement to be fair and valid in the eyes of the court, both parties must receive independent legal advice. Lyons Bowe can act for one party while recommending trusted solicitors for the other.
Without a prenuptial agreement, financial settlements on divorce are decided by the court under UK law. This can result in assets being shared in ways you did not intend. Lyons Bowe helps clients safeguard their interests with clear agreements in place.
Costs vary depending on the complexity of your assets and the level of negotiation required. Lyons Bowe offers transparent pricing and clear guidance so you understand the value of protecting your future through a properly drafted agreement.
Alongside your prenup, make sure your Will reflects your shared plans. We’ll help you secure your estate, name guardians, and leave nothing to chance, with care and clarity from the outset.
