She was very professional, friendly and helpful. She responded quickly either via email or telephone to queries and I would have no hesitation in using her and the company again should the need arise. Thank you Elena for making the whole process pain free.

We found Howard and Over to be very helpful, professional and approachable throughout the purchase of our property. They were knowledgeable, explained everything clearly and kept us informed throughout the process. They made what could have been a stressful experience feel straight forward and we felt well looked after from start to finish. We would definitely use Howard and Over again in the future.

I had a fantastic experience working with Howard & Over. From very initial impression, the team was incredibly professional, approachable and knowledgeable, they handled all of my documentation with absolute accuracy and kept me informed every step of the way. I truly felt I received great value for money and would highly recommend their services to everyone.

HOUSE CONVEYANCE. VERY FRIENDLY AND EFFICIENT SERVICE FROM RECEPTION UPWARDS.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and will be sure to pass your kind comments on to the team.
We used Howard and over for our purchase of our first home together. When we found out we were assigned the partner for residential sales, we thought we lucked out, we were wrong. Following our initial details and documents, the communication from H&O became scarce and only when prompted. 2 months in we found out that they neglected to tell us that the house we thought was freehold was actually leasehold, by which time we’d already done a survey and incurred costs (if we’d known this sooner, we might’ve been able to make a decision about whether we still wanted the house). We only found this out by sending almost a half dozen emails asking the same questions, which were not/partially answered each time. During the whole process, we were made to feel like everytime we asked for an update that we were inconveniencing them. Every email and phonecall was answered with an air of annoyance and rarely were we given a straight answer. At the end of the process, after 4 separate emails of asking, I rang to figure out a completion date, only to be told that I had to organise this with all the estate agents myself as this was “the easiest option”. Both estate agents were astounded that this had been given to me to do, as was I. Following completion, we didn’t get a single message or comment of congratulations, and we were sent an incorrect bill which they were very forceful in getting us to pay immediately. Overall a really disappointing experience and I will recommend to anyone who will listen to avoid this firm

Howard & Over recently undertook conveyancing work for me and I would thoroughly recommend them. I found dealing with them an absolute pleasure. Everyone I came into contact with was approachable professional, knowledgeable and responsive. Particular thanks to Natalie.

We recently worked with Danielle at Howard and Over during our house move, and the experience was outstanding. Having dealt with other solicitors in the past, we were prepared for the usual frustrations, but Danielle completely changed our perspective. She was incredibly efficient, maintaining excellent communication throughout the process. Every query we had was answered promptly and clearly, which was a huge relief during what could have been a very stressful time. Her guidance and support were invaluable, especially given the added pressure from our sellers. Thanks to her expertise and professionalism, the entire process was smooth and stress-free. We can’t recommend Danielle and the team at Howard and Over highly enough. If you’re looking for a solicitor who is not only reliable but also a pleasure to work with, look no further!

I chose Danielle Soames, on a recommendation, to represent me for the very recent sale of my house and the purchase of my new property. After 35 years of living in the 'family home' I knew it was time to downsize , and I was dreading the whole thing . What can I say, Danielle was amazing. I felt looked after from the moment the process started . Danielle was calm, clear and always kept me up to date and fully informed, from start to finish. The sale was more complicated than normal due to personal circumstances, something that has put me off selling for a long while, but Danielle skillfully and easily managed the issue as if it was nothing at all to worry about. I cannot find the words to express how reassured I always felt during our communications. Danielle you really are a credit to Howard and Over .The firm must be so proud to have such a high calibre employee, ticking every box , totally approachable with a lovely friendly manner and an obvious professionalism meaning I knew she had me covered for everything . I had a slight panic at the end with the chain not agreeing on completion dates but Danielle told me not to worry, very quickly sorted it with the chain and made it work to suit me. I will recommend Danielle and Howard and Over to anyone as my experience has been first class in every way. I had the opportunity to meet some of the staff in the Marsh Mills office as I had to pop in some documents and again, what a lovely friendly and professional team they are. I immediately felt welcomed and nothing was too much trouble. Thankyou Danielle , for making a process that could have been traumatic so smooth and stress free. Thankyou to the staff at the Marsh Mills Office for your friendliness and your professionalism, what a great staff team. On reflection, now I m happily sat in my new home, I almost miss the emails and contact from Danielle, the feeling of being represented by someone who really cares about you as a person , not just a customer. And , most importantly, the knowledge that you have someone on your side, looking after your interests and keeping the whole process moving along with no issues to worry about. You re a star Danielle and I wish you every success for your future . Thank you so much.

Having successfully used this company in the past, I recently had an unpleasant experience. Because I asked 2 questions about identification material, which they already had from the last transaction, and why they required a £250 deposit from me and £250 from my wife, they decided that there was a ‘lack of trust’ and closed the account. Inexplicable and sad. No stars this time I’m afraid.
We recently worked with Danielle at Howard and Over during our house move, and the experience was outstanding.
