Lyons Bowe have been excellent during our first home buying experience. Lily was an amazing first port of call and make the experience so smooth and easy. Eleanor and Finn also allowed for such an informative transition through the process all of which really had our best interests at heart. The app is a great feature allowing us to track our progress throughout each stage. I would highly recommend and we are extremely grateful for our service.

As first time buyers we felt at ease with the process that Lyons Bowe use. You are guided through teams as your matter progresses. A special thank you to Ellie Weeks who really helped us to completion when we thought it was going to fall through. She made sure we were well informed and we felt like she was really in our corner. I’ve often heard of solicitors being slow either difficult communication when buying a house, but that was not my experience at all with Lyons Bowe.

Thato, maddie
Thato, Maddie and entire team was very professional during my process of conveyancing. They handle my case with utmost professionalism and it was super fast. In just about 10weeks the whole process was concluded. I am very impressed with the speed and response.

I had an outstanding experience working with Emelia Lewis, Legal Assistant. From start to finish, Emelia was professional, attentive, and incredibly efficient. She kept me informed at every stage, explained everything clearly, and made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable.
Her attention to detail and genuine willingness to help really stood out. It’s rare to find someone so responsive and dedicated to client care. I felt confident throughout knowing everything was in capable hands.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Emelia to anyone in need of legal support - truly excellent service

Land registration
I recently registered a purchase of agricultural land at my premises.
Laura Walker led me through the procedure and assisted me in all aspects of the process.
Laura was very clear on all requirements and was very helpful on ensuring that all documentation was concluded promptly and correctly.
I would strongly recommend the service provided.

Outstanding Service
We had an excellent experience with Lyons Bowe and couldn’t recommend them more highly. From start to finish, their professionalism, clear communication, and consistent support made what is often a very stressful process feel smooth and well-managed.
Our case was particularly challenging, as our previous solicitors had caused significant delays that compromised the entire chain. Despite this, Lyons Bowe handled the situation with exceptional professionalism and efficiency. They stepped in, took control, and managed to complete our purchase within just five weeks, which was truly impressive.
We are incredibly grateful for the dedication and responsiveness shown at every stage. A special thank you to Ellie Weeks (Legal Assistant from the Completion Team), Geraldine Van Zyl (Conveyancing Executive from the Legal Team), and Prerana Das (Legal Assistant who supported us with the new instructions and initial documentation). Your hard work, attention to detail, and support made all the difference.
Thank you to the whole team for your commitment and outstanding service.

Excellent
I recently completed a house move and used Lyons Bowe for the conveyancing. From start to finish a great experience, everything dealt with quickly and efficiently. If I had any questions I could phone and they were always available to assist. Big shout out to Sian Shepard and Jayden Lyons who got the purchase completed quickly for me. Would recommend to anyone.

We can’t emphasize enough to find someone else
We recently had a really frustrating experience with Lyon's Bowe Solicitors. Trying to get a simple query resolved felt like navigating a maze – passed from person to person, each seemingly less informed than the last. The lack of clear communication was a major issue; we constantly had to chase them for updates, and it felt like pulling teeth to get any information. On top of that, they often left us in the dark when it came to dealing with the management company and the seller's solicitors, causing unnecessary worry and stress. Even on the day we were supposed to exchange, they suddenly needed another document and then went silent, leaving us in the dark all day. To make matters worse, the advice we did receive often seemed vague and not tailored to our specific situation, making us question their expertise. Honestly, we expected a much higher level of professionalism, clear guidance, and efficiency, especially considering this process has dragged on for over 9 months, even with no onward chain. And to top it off, they kept adding significant charges onto the bill, which felt completely unjustified. Seriously, if you need solicitors, We can't emphasize enough that you should find someone else.

We were totally in the dark about how to make out our wills , but thankfully Georgina guided us through the process with her expertise and knowledge to make it a totally stress free process - would highly recommend Lyons Bowe solicitors .

Very thorough
Great for my house sale and onward purchase. They picked up two critical issues with my purchase which were then resolved before completion. Not the cheapest, but totally worth the money.

Mirror Wills Process…
We have had Mirror Wills drawn up by Lyons Bowe and have been extremely pleased with the process. The Teams meeting with Andrea was clear and informative and friendly and she has been more than willing to answer any questions we have had, by email, throughout the process. We have also had dealings with Imogene who was also very professional.
