Updated review:

We have now completed on the sale aspect of the process. The 5 star comfortably still stands. Roy and Nicole were incredibly communicative, efficient and effective. We thoroughly recommend BWS. You would be in the safest of hands with their service.

We instructed BWS for the both sale and purchase of properties. We have now completed of the purchase element so I felt it was appropriate to provide some feedback. We worked closely with Roy and Nicole and we cannot thank them enough. They were communicative, available and importantly, very efficient. They worked diligently to meet our deadlines and communicate on our behalf. The online solution - Redbrick - was also great from the perspective of visibility and document sharing. We look forward to continuing to working with them on our sale.

I highly recommend Chloe Shippley as an extremely experienced family lawyer she is concise, polite, practical, non inflammatory
and very fair in her charges. I have a lot of experience of other top named companies falling very short of the mark - so a strong recommendation from me.

I had a great experience using BWS law. Clare and her team were fantastic from start to finish. Constant communication, fast response and extremely helpful. They made my 1st house purchase easy, fast and stress free. I would highly recommend this firm and I shall only use them in the future.

Nahida at BWS Law worked with us over eight months on Conveyancing matters.
She answered and actioned our emails and queries promptly and in a detailed manner. One was particularly complicated and her great skill in dealing with this was much appreciated. Throughout she kept us informed of progress at all times, especially when other agencies were slow. We appreciated her positive attitude and skill.
