What our clients say about us

Fantastic solicitors! Quick, easy, and stress-free service. I’ve worked with Roy and Nicole and honestly can’t recommend them enough.
Sheila was simply excellent.
Great communications throughout the process. All dealt with very quickly and to our total satisfaction.
Very impressed and can highly recommend Sheila if you have a contentious probate situation.
Fantastic service from BWS during my recent house sale and purchase. We promptly received a full quotation with no hidden extras or fees and this transparency really helped with our planning.
Rachel and Leanne, kept me and my husband upto date throughout the whole process both via emails and also through their online Redbrick portal which helpfully tracks the live progress of our case. There was always someone available for a phone call to answer any questions and give helpful advice.
Clear communication and reassurance made the whole process feel less stressful and everything moved along smoothly.
It gave me great confidence to use BWS again knowing my case was handled in safe hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend both BWS or Rachel.
Fast and efficient service which is not always the case with most professional companies, highly recommend Peter Baker as a competent and efficient lawyer.
Excellent service throughout. Leanne Sinclair and Rachel Howell were both professional and reliable. Great attention to detail, would highly recommended them.
great service and good price for it, definitely recommended
Couldn't have asked for any more from Andrew, Sharon and the team. Always available for a call and quickly responding to emails, lovely people too. Definitely 5 star
Couldn’t recommend Sheila and Reanne enough! Both extremely helpful straight from the initial contact and keeping me informed and updated through out. Couldn’t thank them enough!
I'm really impressed by BWS Law, largely based on the support I've received from Georgia. She has guided and advised me on two major legal matters (with some background complexities) - my house move and preparing a will for me.

The Loughborough office is well placed, run very efficiently with polite and welcoming staff. Georgia is responsive, communicates well (and frequently) and has the right blend of professional and personal support which is critical in most situations where legal advice is required.

I would definitely recommend BWS Law without hesitation on the basis of my experiences this year.
This is the third time of using BWS Law. (The first time being a personal house sale with Erica Brownen, and the reason for me recommending the firm to the local council I work for.)
From beginning to end, for all 3 sales, the work has been outstanding.
Their fees are very competitive and extremely transparent, customer service is second to none, communication and responses are always prompt. They do not slow the process up at all, unlike other solicitors I have come across.
Special mentions to Nicola Stevenson - Associate Solicitor and Diane Hyde - Legal Secretary for their hard work!
