Being accused of a criminal offence was the last thing I thought would prompt me to use the services of Ann Ridge and Howells Solicitors, however back in 2022 that is exactly what happened. From the very first contact, until the conclusion of my case some years later I can only describe the service offered as high class and professional. Howells have access to excellent and knowledgable barristers who fought my corner in an environment that I was unfamiliar with resulting in the correct verdict. I would not think twice about recommending this company should you find yourself in need of life changing, life saving, advice and a service to defend your rights. Ann Ridge has a unique and honest demeanour, a pleasure to deal with and my thanks go out to everybody in the team.

I was represented by Jen at the start of this year. Before having representation, I spent two years being strung along through a drawn-out legal case by the CPS, with multiple adjournments. Jen took over my case and was extremely professional and thorough. She picked everything apart with a fine-tooth comb, stood up and made herself count when I needed it, and had everything settled within 90 days, achieving an outcome ten times better than I could ever have asked or hoped for.

I had the privelege of having Steve Roberts as my lawyer over the course of 5-6 months on aparticular tricky and emotionally draining case. From the very beginning, Steve not only demonstrated deep legal knowledge and professionalism but also genuine empathy and understanding for what I was going through. During a time when I was genuinly upset and overwhelmed, he brought a much needed sense of calmness and clarity to the situation. He was always available, easy to contact and open in his communication, which made this stressful processfeel much more manageable. From the initial charges to the day of the hearing, Steve remained consistenly supportive as well as proactive, guiding me through every single step with patience and clear advice. Thanks to his dedication, knowledge and expertise, we managed to acheive the best possible outcome in a complex and challenging situation. I cant recommend Steve highly enough. If youre facing a tricky issue and want someone who not only knows the ins and outs but genuinly cares, then Steve is the person to go too. Can't thank Steve enough for what he done in my case, and for sure if I didn't have him along side me things could have turned out very differently.

I would have no hesitation in highly recommending her.
