Bower & Bailey - Solicitors Reviews 62

Second time using Bower Bailey Swindon, and much like the first time the service was fantastic.
I used their services for a property investment purchase, and the process from beginning to end was seamless. Giles and Maheen processed all transactions very quickly, and all communication was fast and efficient. Would 100% recommend and will use again!

Bower Bailey provided excellent service with our first house purchase from start to finish. Jane and Eugene were efficient, responsive, and kept communication clear throughout the process. They were always available to offer support and answer questions when needed, taking much of the stress out of what can often be a stressful process. With Bower Bailey, my partner and I felt we were in safe hands. I’d happily recommend their services to others.

Great service, very professional with good communication.

Would always use Bower and Bailey for any legal paperwork needed to be done. The Service they give is outstanding. We have used them for many things, on this occasion, we were buying our new home, Victoria Bullard dealt with our selling and buying our new Home. The whole process was a smooth as it could be. We were kept informed of everything going on, as it was happening, not a few days later. Victoria would always get back to me with any answers I had, within the day and more often than not within the hour. So grateful for the great communication, she’s a credit to the company.

Hugely impressed with this firm. Eugene and Jane dealt with my leasehold flat sale and were efficient, professional and helpful through the whole process, which included an aborted sale before finally getting to a completion. I would have no hesitation in recommending them. Thank you

I have always used Bower & Bailey
Solicitors.
I have had professional service again. Eugene and Jane have kept me up with the process at all times and the sale done within the time I expected.
Thank you for all your professional help and support once again.

I was engaged by Bower Bailey in my capacity as a freeholder in connection with a property completion. While I was not their client directly, the experience of dealing with them — and David Martin specifically — was disappointing.

On the surface, David Martin came across as personable and engaging. However, there was a significant gap between that impression and the reality. I had clearly communicated my travel plans and likely unavailability well in advance, specifically so that any requirements could be identified and resolved before my departure. That communication was not acted upon.

Instead, I found myself being contacted urgently while travelling in remote locations across the South Pacific, and on my return received pointed emails implying I was responsible for delays — despite having done everything I could to flag my situation ahead of time. Rather than proactively managing the matter, the approach was reactive and, at times, felt passive aggressive.

A good solicitor listens, anticipates, and acts. In my experience, that was not the standard on display here. I felt blamed for shortcomings that were not of my making.

I would not recommend Bower Bailey based on this experience.

Great working with Victoria Bullard for the purchase of my first home, and was very happy with the service and communication across the whole process.

Excellent service from start to finish. Communication was clear and consistent throughout the whole process, which made everything much less stressful. Professional, efficient, and a pleasure to deal with. I would definitely recommend.

We worked with Kay Angwin for the purchase of our home and we were thoroughly happy with the service.
This was our first house purchase, and she was great at putting our minds at ease and explaining the information we needed, as well as processing the LISA quickly.
Kay was transparent and clear about delays happening elsewhere in the chain (from other sellers), and she did everything to push these through as quickly as possible.

Working with Stuart Palmer on what has been a difficult chain for a lovely couple, I can honestly say it has been an absolute pleasure he went above and beyond to to make it work for the clients and that is what we are both here for (team work)

Hello
It has been a long journey for us and after decades of building our business, we have finally decided it’s time to let someone else takeover.
We contacted Bower & Bailey and our point of contact was Robert Brooks.
I have worked with many solicitors over the course of my business life and can say without any hesitation Rob along with his team, Rebecca and Rosie is one of the best solicitor’s team I have instructed.
It’s not only his skills in achieving what the client wants but the patience he has is amazing.
Finally, Rob is a really nice human being and that helps when you are already under stress with the sale of your business and all the headache that goes with.
Thank you Rob, I will recommend you and your company to my network of people.

Over the last 15 months we’ve had several failed attempts to purchase a property and our most recent successful purchase was impeded at almost every turn by complex legal issues and an unreliable solicitor on the sellers’ side (not Bower Bailey).

Throughout it all, Matthew and Laura persevered on our behalf and it is only thanks to their expertise and diligence that we achieved a positive outcome. There were times when it felt like they were the only people we could trust in the process, and they showed patience and empathy by taking time to explain issues which we often didn’t understand. It was reassuring to know we had such a great team fighting our corner.

During my time with Suzanne Dobbs, I was made to feel supported and listened to. The work that was put in for my case was outstanding. I highly recommend Bower & Bailey, especially Suzanne.

Victoria and Lindsey did everything we would want when buying a house - they were clear, concise and helpful, they listened to all our concerns, they always took our calls and responded promptly to our emails and they were always up to date and on the ball. Very happy with their work.

Very reliable service always got back to me with queries very professional team. Would highly recommend there services

We recently completed a house move with the help of Bower & Bailey, and we cannot recommend them highly enough. Particularly our appointed solicitors, Sara Lovesey and Codie Church.

From the very beginning, Sara and Codie were absolutely brilliant. Our move was far from straightforward, with multiple difficulties that could have easily derailed the process. But throughout it all, their calm professionalism, clear communication, and sheer dedication kept everything on track.

What really stood out was how genuinely supportive they were during what turned out to be a very stressful time. No matter the issue, Sara and Codie handled it with efficiency and confidence, always keeping us informed and reassured. They truly went above and beyond to ensure the transaction went through smoothly and on time.

Their attention to detail, responsiveness, and unwavering commitment to getting things done properly were second to none. It made all the difference knowing we had such a capable and trustworthy team behind us.

Thank you Sara and Codie, you made what could have been a nightmare into a manageable, even positive experience. We’re so grateful for your hard work and can’t imagine having gone through this without you!

Our solicitor Victoria was very professional and responded to all queries we had very quickly. Would recommend Bower & Bailey!

Our experience with Bower and Bailey was fantastic ,the team worked hard to get us moved into new home . I would recommend them to anyone thinking of instructing a solicitor . Can't thank the team enough .

We were recommended them by our property developer and unfortunately they were the only downside to our house purchase.

I appreciate they are very busy day to day but i feel they lacked any kind of polite formalities when talking over the phone and also we found the level of communication rather when certain emails were requested when we have transferred money etc
