Change of will / arranging LPA’s

Company Sale and Company Acquisition

Having recently used Lanyon Bowdler for the sale of a business, we had no hestitation in contacting Edward Burrell again to represent us in the purchase of another company.
His advice and judgement was always spot on and his personal dedication towards achieving our objectives and getting the best possible outcome for his clients was impressive.

Welcome Guidance Though Legalese

Following my partner’s death, I had to deal with renewing my will and getting a Lasting Power of Attorney in place for the future. My solicitor was welcoming and explained the various options, making sure my new will was as I wished and clearly stated, was done in a sympathetic and timely manner. Obtaining an LPA is a complicated process and does take a long time (approx. five months). This had been explained, so there was no panic as the months passed by. Both these processes are now complete and I would definitely recommend Lanyon Bowdler having been a client for many years.

First Home Purchase

Fantastic service from start to finish. Gemma was incredible efficient, helpful and proactive acting on my behalf on the purchase of my new home. I set quite the challenge to exchange and complete in 4-6 weeks and Gemma managed to deliver this.
A big thank you Gemma. I really appreciated your support and I am absolutely chuffed to be the very proud new owner of my first home.
Best wishes and thank you to your amazing team for everything they did too!

Gemma was excellent throughout keeping me informed at every stage. She kindly offered to meet with me on two occasions to go through questions that the purchasers solicitor was asking which was very helpful. I have never sold a property before and Gemma made the process very easy. Thank you Gemma.

From day one, Stephanie, our solicitor, was very approachable and always available to answer any questions. I felt secure in the knowledge that she was ‘on our side’ and really looking after our interests. I would certainly recommend her to anyone looking to use this service.
