Inquest help

We met with Elizabeth today to discuss the preparation for an inquest. Elizabeth could not have been more helpful, supportive and reassuring about the process, and how everything proceeds going forward. We now have the support we need. Thank you Elizabeth!

Compassionate and professional service

We received the highest quality service from Jenna and her team who represented us at the inquest of our son. She provided compassion and high quality service, and answered our many questions patiently. Communications were responded to in a timely and polite manner. We will never forget how kind she was at a very difficult time for us and would highly recommend Howells to others because of this.

First impressions

Elizabeth was very polite snd professional. She took her time to talk me through the process, didn't rush any point asking and even answered my questions very promptly via email the day after when i couldn't quite grasp something. Excellent all round service so far.

Talking to a stranger about a personal medical situation

Helen is a great listener, she had a calm and careful approach when listening to my story. She has great empathy and takes time to fully understand the situation. Helen also gave me the picture from a legal perspective being clear and concise. I would highly recommend Helen of Howell’s Solicitors. However complex a case is she will listen and deal with a case professionally.

5 star solicitor ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Michaela has been my solicitor for just over 15 months and has helped and supported me while going through the process of a property buy out. She is absolutely amazing at her job, and has done everything she possibly could to assist me and help me through out the last 15 months. I couldn’t have done it without her. She is really amazing! I would definitely recommend Michaela to anyone that is going through anything that requires a family solicitor. She will help and support you and she does everything she can do you get you to the finish line. Absolutely brilliant. 5 starts ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Tried to get these to act on my behalf for a personal injury claim and they fobbed me off. I did everything they asked but didn’t get any help. Just “we are not acting as your solicitor” when I’ve tried to get them to act as my solicitor from the start. They even told me to go and speak to other firms! I had a traumatic accident and I am incredibly stressed, this has not helped me in the slightest and has made it worse if anything. Would not recommend.

We were so lucky to have Catherine Shelton as our conveyancer she is truly amazing, patient and understanding we had a long wait for a property in probate but Catherine remained very understanding of the frustrations and actually ensured that once the property had come out of probate we were set up and ready to go, she planned and organised it all perfectly which made the conveyancing go very well. Thankyou Catherine for chasing up on matters, organisation and understanding of our situation and for making our experience in buying a home for the first time easier.

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
