Lyons Bowe Solicitors are simply the best and i couldn’t thank them enough for the smooth and efficient process for the purchase of my house when they were acting on my behalf.

Hand on my heart without any hesitation i very strongly recommend to anyone anywhere in the country who is looking to purchase or sale their property to get in contact with Lyons Bowe Solicitors .

No headaches, no stress no delays , Elle Box who was acting on my behalf was absolutely fantastic , luckily i had the opportunity to go into the office quite a few times as i live very close to their Shepton Mallet office i met with a couple of other staff who were absolutely brilliant , always welcoming, extremely friendly and “I’m here to help you” attitude which is exactly what we all need as we all know that buying or selling a house can be very stressful but because of the fantastic Elle Box and the rest of the team i felt no stress whatsoever.

Very highly recommend to anyone.

Thank you so very much Elle Box and everyone else at Lyons Bowe Solicitors .

God bless you all.

About this branch

Description

When we set up Lyons Bowe in 2014, we were driven by a mix of frustration and desire. Frustration at the number of firms that didn’t share the values that we felt were most important and our desire to give clients the kind of service that you told us you wanted. Our core values underpin our entire service and lie at the heart of everything we offer. As a modern law firm, we pride ourselves on representing these core values – both in what we do and how we do it.
