Adam D.

This team is great and easy team to deal with, and very helpful through everything. Chloe was my solicitor and she was very helpful throughout, knew exactly what she was talking about, very professional and helped me a lot to get the results that I needed. With being a lorry driver and find it very difficult to go to meeting, they found it very understand, and was great over phone calls to help where it was needed. I would strongly recommend these people with any help that you may need to get the results that you need. Thank you for your help.

Cosmic D.

I cannot recommend Chloe Shipley enough; her exceptional legal expertise, compassionate approach, and unwavering support transformed a challenging time into a journey marked by clarity and confidence. From the very first consultation, she took the time to listen and explain all my options, ensuring every detail was meticulously handled with professionalism and genuine care. If you’re seeking a family law solicitor who truly puts your best interests at heart, look no further.

Heena P.

Chloe Shipley is amazing and supportive through a very difficult time. Very professional and does everything in her power to help. Good communication and swift management of difficult situations. Highly recommended and many thanks to her.

Sophie M.

I delt with Georgia who provided me with a quote for BWS services when buying our first home. I felt quite out of my depth, but Georgia was incredibly patient with me and made me feel at instantly at ease. She was very professional and knowledgeable, always going out of her way to make tricky legal concepts more digestible and accessible for me so that I felt as informed and empowered as possible. She always responded promptly to any query I had which was so helpful and much appreciated, especially since not having this same level of service elsewhere! Would 100% recommend. Thank you, Georgia

Freya C.

Georgia has been incredibly helpful throughout the process of buying our first house. She has always replied very quickly and has been happy to answer all of my questions. I would very highly recommend Georgia. Thank you so much.

Roy and Nicole were both brilliant - extremely professional and made the whole process incredibly streamlined and straightforward. They helped me complete on a purchase/sale working within a narrow timeframe. Would highly recommend.

Mickey B.

Had a divorce that should have been easy, that turned into a 2 year battle because of my immature ex! Her greed and poor advice created a costly financial resolution, that was more or less the same as original offer!Throughout the process Stephen was amazing. Patient, professional and very knowledgeable. Reception staff polite, and Beth (Stephen's secretary) very helpful. Again thank you.Would definitely recommend.

Stuart N.

Sold and purchased a property with BWS Solicitors. Erica and Nahida were brilliant throughout. No hassle and a smooth process. Big thank you to both of you!

Dan W.

BWS Solicitors are without doubt in my experience the most professional and efficient family law firm that I have ever come across.From my initial contact enquiry with Steve, dealing with Reanne on the admin Side and Chloe who represented me on my proceedings, the complete process was incredible.Chloe instructed me how an old fashioned solicitor should do, shes ahead of her game on all aspects of family law and to say I was impressed was an understatementThese 3 specialists treat there clients with the upmost respect, They make me feel so important and most of all with legal jargon they explain things in layman's terms which for anyone who doesn't have the law experience is so important.Im only part of the way in my family law dispute but I feel so confident knowing that Steve, Reanna and especially Chloe have my backThank you so much guys

Stew W

We used BWS Law for the refinance of multiple flats with a new lender. They were fantastic - fast communication, fast at getting the docs out to sign, and they completed the refinance to a tight deadline.

Absolutely fabulous service from start to finish. After speaking to the lovely lady on reception I spoke with Reanne, who was both patient and made me feel 100% confident she was in control of what I needed doing. Amar was the solicitor who looked after me, true Gent! What was a very stressful situation, it was dealt with by people who show genuine care and great understanding. Would certainly recommend if you want friendly, professional and caring people to look after you. 10/10 all round…Perfection

We recently engaged Erica Bronwen to manage the conveyancing for our home sale, and she delivered exceptional service from start to finish. Although the sale initially appeared straightforward, it became complicated due to our buyer’s poor choice of legal advisers. Erica handled these challenges with remarkable efficiency and professionalism, ensuring that nothing was ever too much trouble.She managed the entire process promptly, responding quickly and consistently to keep things on track. We wouldn’t hesitate to work with Erica and BWS again for any future property transactions.

The support provide by Chloe has been beyond what was expected . Making sure that all options are explored and taking the time to ensure that they are fullyunderstood to support decisions made. Chloe has taken a highly emotional and stressful situation and provided clarity, a safe space and support with the most amazing amount of care and empathy. I would highly recommend BWS Law Solicitors.

Alan Hunt

1732626722

Over a long time I have sometimes had reasons to require legal advice and have always found BWS Law extremely professional and efficient. Above all very approachable and understanding, confident in them providing the best advice. Latterly I am currently dealing with Chloe Shipley over a family law issue who always responds to queries promptly and in a helpful and constructive manner which helps to remove any anxieties. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Chloe especially in family matters and BWS Law in other areas.

Mark Haslam

1731098309

Great service, great people and easy to deal with. We required the writing and official completion of a Will within a few days of a rather long extended holiday. We consulted with Georgie at BWS Law to determine if we see her on Tuesday, could she finalise the legal completion of the Will by that Friday. Yes, she could. We were extremely impressed by the clear discussion that was easily understandable to us to guide us through this process. We were also impressed by Georgie suggesting things to us that we had not previously considered. Great customer experience and would highly recommend this efficient and effective company

Amanda Bailey

1730467956

I urgently needed independent legal advice for a couple of documents I was required to sign. My first inquiry with a local solicitor was unsuccessful, but thankfully, Nicola was able to provide the necessary service. An appointment was made in the same week. Nicola guided me through the terms of the documents and explained relevant points. She was very helpful. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Nicola for any assistance you may need regarding legal matters.

Thank you so much again and I would have no hesitation in recommending BWS in the future.
