I can hand on my heart say Lanyon Bowdler are the best company I have worked for. Everyone is so welcoming and approachable, I feel honoured to have been offered an opportunity to work here and to be a part of such a fantastic team.

Bethany Fennell
Debt Recovery Unit

I have worked as a solicitor at Lanyon Bowdler for over 30 years and have particularly enjoyed building up my practice and experience in contentious probate work during a large part of that period. The quality and range of work has always been very good and kept me interested.

Claire Vale
Contentious Probate

I have been supported by Lanyon Bowdler throughout my career. Starting as a legal support assistant in 2016, undertaking my LPC part time, and then through my training contract. I am now recognised as an associate solicitor. It has been a supportive and friendly place to work.
