    We have been going to Susan Howarth & Company for many years as a family. We have always been delighted with the service we received either regarding probate and LPA advice or conveyance. We have always been treated well, the staff are so friendly and although our work is now complete, we feel we can return in the future if we need to. We would highly recommend their services and would like to thank them for their care and attention.

      Nicola Deakin was my solicitor during a very emotional and distressing time for me. Without her help and support I could never of been strong enough to stand and take on the biggest and hardest fight of my life. Nicola was always professional and often worked long past her normal working hours in order to support me, nothing was ever to big or small. I really cant thank her enough.
