Exceptional Care During a Difficult Time

I just want to say how truly grateful I am for the support I’ve received from Sophie and the team so far. From the very beginning, I felt genuinely listened to and understood. I was going through a really difficult and emotional time, and they handled everything with such care, patience, and kindness. Sophie in particular made me feel so at ease that at times I forgot I was even speaking to a legal firm. — she spoke in a way I could understand and made me feel completely safe and supported. What meant the most to me was feeling heard and valued. Even when I wasn’t at my best, they were always there, reassuring me and guiding me through everything step by step. That level of understanding has made a huge difference to me. No matter what the outcome of my claim is, I can honestly say the way I have been treated has been incredible. The team have worked hard, shown real compassion, and made a stressful situation feel much more manageable. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone going through something similar. Their professionalism, combined with genuine care, really stands out. Thank you again for everything Sophie and team x

Amy Fiddler is currently handling my medical negligence case and she is just incredible. Right from the start she has gone above and beyond, late night telephone appointments, keeping me in the loop, always available to answer questions. She genuinely cares and it makes the whole process so much easier to manage emotionally. I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to help me through this - 5 stars isn’t enough!

A representative from Howells Solicitors responded to this review

Dear Rebecca Many thanks for the 5 star review. I will pass on your comments to Amy and the team at the Sheffield office.

Louise made everything smooth and easy when explaining the procedure,needed when my wife and myself made our Last Will and Testements. She was also there to guide me through the minefield called Probate when I lost both my parents, once again making everything easy and straightforward.

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

I have just used Howells Solicitors for conveyancing and Catherine Shelton and the team have been excellent. They were organised, efficient and very responsive with communication. They also gave me the most competitive quote out of other solicitors across Sheffield. I would not hesitate to use them again. Thank you Howells.
