Having being impressed with how my late mother-in-law's estate was settled, I had every confidence in The Howe Practice selling my house. Sue Tonkin was really friendly, efficient and kept me well informed throughout the process. I would not hesitate to recommend the excellent services this Practice has to offer.

Very pleased with the service and advice provided by Sue Tonkin at The Howe Practice during the sale of my parents house. Always easy to contact and after a protracted process due to our first buyer stalling and eventually withdrawing Sue helped us process the sale to the new buyer efficiently, completing in a matter of weeks.

Warm, friendly and competent are the words that spring to mind when dealing with Victoria Whittle from The Howe Practice. She was fast and efficient in producing our Wills and we were more than pleased with the results.

When you Google a housing conveyance service in Greater Manchester you’ll get cheaper quotes but you won’t get better value than at Howe Practice. Tina and Sue are simply superb, always easy to get hold off, quick to respond and thoroughly professional. I’ve used them for over 2 decades and can’t praise them enough

Just completed the sale of my step-aunt's flat. The family had used The Howe Practice for property transactions a couple of times previously, and they were the natural choice this time too. So pleased that we stayed with them, because I can't imagine anyone else could have provided better service, and the fees seem reasonable too. Dealt briefly with 2-3 members of staff, all good, and mainly with Sue Tonkin, who certainly deserves our thanks.

Our property sale and purchase had several stressful moments, but Tina & Sue gave good and calm advice, while relentlessly pressing the other side to see sense. They raised our spirits when we began to despair. No better advertisement for the firm and for using a proper solicitor.

It was a pleasure to work with the Howe Practice for our conveyancing. They were very responsive to our communications and Tina and Sue dealt with everything efficiently and effectively. Good to talk with Tina on the phone throughout the process - very down to earth and competent in dealing with some of the issues that came up.

I have used THP twice now for my house moves and both times absolutely faultless. Such a quick turn around, so approachable and knowledgeable. Wouldn’t use anyone else and always recommend to friends and family!

The Howe Practice sets the standard for how all law offices should be run! Their conveyancing for my house sale was lead by Susan Tonkin, who answered EVERY email within 24 hours (and most on the same day) and had the best attitude I've ever encountered in a law practice. Some pernickety issues arose with my buyer, but Sue soldiered on, and we exchanged in exactly two months from the buyer's offer (a record-breaking time in my experience). She truly represented me in the sale in every way. I'm also using The Howe Practice's Victoria Greenwood for Will writing, who also has the same pleasant, friendly professionalism as Sue and the others. On top of that, the Stockport office is dog-friendly (just look at their logo).

Autonomy: The provision of choice and subsequent respect for choices made by clients, balancing rights, risks and responsibilities. Optimising a person’s control through the sharing of information and empowering their decision-making. Life Goals: Support by understanding the importance of a client’s past, their present-day needs, and their hopes for the future. Our values to individual and organisational learning, underpinned by person-centred principles is where our firm differs from other legal practices
