From among the Bower & Bailey team of solicitors, of whom we have been clients for the past 22 years, Daniel Vernede was recommended to us this year to draw up legal documents involving Power of Attorney provisions and updating our Wills in January and April 2016. We were very favourably impressed right from first acquaintance throughout the entire transactions by his friendly expertise, grasp of our requirements and situation, expeditious professional discharge of our instructions, and very reasonable terms of engagement. In all our dealings it has been a pleasure to have placed our confidence in his understanding and expertise; we appreciate his services and his exemplary competence.

David is an outstanding litigator. He combines excellent judgment with an ability to manage cases efficiently. He has an enviable reputation for being supportive to his clients who rely on his sound judgment and sympathetic approach. He remains my first port of call for personal referrals.

James Hulme was brilliant from start to finish. Not only is he a great listener, making your problem his problem by truly understanding all the issues, he also gives great advice which is simple to understand (and follow).

I first contacted Kirsty in relation to a Lasting Power of Attorney for my Mother but ultimately had to proceed on a Court of Protection basis. Later Kirsty assisted me in Probate and Estate related issues. Throughout this Kirsty provided clear, concise and understandable advice processing instructions promptly and well within expected timescales. I was confident of the work she was performing, have no hesitation in recommending Kirsty and would certainly engage her again should needs arise.

Philip Cooksey of Bower Bailey was my Brother's solicitor, and after his death I used their services. I have to say I was most impressed with the way they handled his affairs, and I, as a "green executor" learned a lot. I am only sorry they do not have offices near me as I would certainly use their expertise.

We have used Bower Bailey over the last five years to first create our holding company and then acquire eight businesses. On each occasion Rob Brookes and his team have acted quickly and offered excellent commercial advice.

We have used Bower Bailey a number of times to acquire and sell commercial properties. Andrew was both fast and thorough acting for us in our most recent acquisition. We completed the purchase ahead of schedule and on budget. We’ll continue to use them and thoroughly recommend them.

I instructed Andrew Symington to act on a property acquisition in late 2015. The property in question involved a public house which was reasonably complex. The transaction had a tight deadline also. Andrew provided clear and concise advice and was very thorough in his reporting and his legal opinion. I found his proactive approach and attention to detail key in concluding the transaction in an utterly professional manner. He was indeed a pleasure to deal with. I would have no hesitation in recommending him and Bower & Bower to act on someone’s behalf.

Stuart Palmer and his team at Bower Bailey have worked for me on numerous property transactions over the last 15 years, from buying my first house to leasing business premises and most recently the purchase of Darke & Taylor’s new Head Office. His approach is professional, the service excellent, and the advice pragmatic resulting in a successful outcome every time.

I fully accept and recognise that I can be (and sometimes am) a demanding customer, this is purely a reflection of the demanding sector that I work in. For my company to stand out, I have to offer outstanding service and products, otherwise I will become a “me too” company. I believe that Bower Bailey have got it right, they are big enough that they can call on specialist in house advice, whilst remaining small enough that they can, and do, offer a truly personal service. I look forward to a long and fruitful relationship with them.
