What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Bower Bailey Solicitors draws consistent praise for the way its solicitors keep clients informed and explain each step in plain terms. Kay Angwin is named repeatedly in relation to conveyancing, handling both purchases and sales, with first-time buyers particularly noting how clearly she set out the process and how smoothly matters progressed to completion. Duncan and Aine Maunder feature in immigration work, including visa applications, where their grasp of the relevant law, careful preparation and steady reassurance are singled out. Aine also receives credit for contested cases, with reviewers emphasising her attention to detail and the outcome achieved.

Dominic is associated with residential purchases, and the estimate of expected fees given at the outset proved close to the eventual invoice. Commercial matters, covering leases, contracts and the disposal of a business, bring mentions of Creagh Masterson-Jones, described as straightforward and calm during a testing transaction. Conor Ducie is linked to a listed-building purchase, where quick responses to calls and emails were valued. What comes through most often is the readiness to answer questions promptly and the confidence this gave clients facing unfamiliar legal territory.

Bower and Bailey have helped us through a number of life events, including house moves and will-writing. One house move was particularly stressful, with a buyer who thought they were a clever property wheeler dealer. Duncan Bain kept us sane throughout and we are eternally grateful for his guidance. Duncan and the other colleagues we have encountered are experienced, give sound advice, are thorough, and are quick to respond. We trust Duncan and the team, and recommend Bower and Bailey to anyone who values accuracy, sound advice, and timely responses.

I can’t recommend Aine highly enough. She handled my case with professionalism, confidence, and real dedication from start to finish — and she won it for me. Despite being a young and new solicitor, her knowledge and attention to detail were outstanding. She kept me informed the whole way, explained everything clearly, and genuinely cared about getting the best outcome. Thank you, Anie — I’m incredibly grateful for your hard work.

We worked with Kay Angwin for our house purchase and she was great throughout. She was professional, efficient, and really good at explaining everything clearly, which made a big difference as first-time buyers. We felt well supported the whole way through and would happily recommend her to anyone buying their home.

Had a complex purchase of a grade 2 listed building. The seller wanted to handle it himself, and wanted the sale very quickly as he was under financial pressure. I had used Bower and Bailey previously for my previous house, and had heard good things about Conor Ducie. I was not dissappointed, communication was excellent with instant replies to emails and calls through out. Super supportive, very positive personality, and definitly has your back. There was no delay as all in the process and we completed the sale within a few weeks of the offer being accepted. If you are looking for a solicitor within the Oxford area , especially for complex cases, that are very quick on execution and communication I highly recommend Conor Ducie at Bower and Bailey
