Crime/ Criminal Defence

Recommend solicitor 1st class!

Chris Whong represented for a criminal case, the 5 star is not only for the the result of the court hearing, but from start to finish. Chris is hands on very quick to respond on the inside or outside, and myself as the parent also going through the matter made it much easier knowing a very professional solicitor was dealing with case, A very warm welcoming helpful solicitor who puts 100 percent in his work, I have and will continue to recommend Chris to others for his hard work and once again would like to say thankyou to Chris for another well done case for my Nephew not just handling his case but supporting him through his stressful time, So much appreciated 🙏

Excellent service

I found Mr Chris Wong to be an excellent solicitor who is very professional and great at his job. His relaxed manor made you feel at ease whilst he gained all the information from you that was required. I can’t recommend Chris enough.

Dads house sale

We would like to thank our conveyancing solicitor Joanna for making the sale of our dad’s house as smooth and stress-free as possible. Professional, efficient, and always helpful, Joanna kept us informed throughout the process. We would happily recommend Joanna to anyone looking for a reliable & supportive conveyancing solicitor.

Divorce Review

I would thoroughly recommend Danielle and the Family Law Team at Howell’s. From our first conversation, I felt that Danielle listened and fully understood my views and what I wanted from the process. All communication was prompt and any supporting documentation clearly outlined the issues raised. Danielle, fiercely defended my interests, stating our position without being overly confrontational. Efficient from start to finish, I would thoroughly recommend Danielle Mahyar in any future legal proceedings.

Joanna and Megan were brilliant for our sale and purchase. They were patient, understanding and clear is every correspondence we had. We never once had to chase them up, they provided updates at every stage. If I needed to call they were always there to talk to and explain any questions I had. Seamless from start to finish. Thank you
