Chris Wong recently represented my son. The service we received was brilliant, he built up a great rapport with my son and kept me up to date with any progress, I always felt reassured after a conversation with Chris as he is very knowledgeable in the industry, it was an extremely difficult thing to go through as a parent but Chris really helped the situation and made me feel a lot more positive about everything throughout. I would highly recommend Chris as he is a very professional but down to earth individual. I wouldn't have wanted anyone else to have supported us though this time and we couldn't off asked for a better outcome in such a complex case.

Criminal Defence
I have used Chris twice over the last 30 years and most recently last year.
Chris has been nothing short of AMAZING.
He listened to my concerns, built an GREAT defence around it, his advice was exemplary which resulted in a successful outcome for me.
He has shown great professionalism and always ensured that I was fully kept informed throughout the process.
Chris was there for me when I really needed him the most, he went beyond his role to call me outside of office hours to reassure me that everything will be ok. An honest and a very nice person.
Hopefully I won’t need to utilise his service again, but one thing is for sure, Chris and his team at Howells have my recommendation and will always be my place to go for legal advice.
Thank you from me and my family Chris.

100% recommend. 5/5 stars. Thanks Chris!
