What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Conveyancing work, particularly sales and purchases, emerges as the area that customers most frequently praise, with several reviewers highlighting how a responsive and engaged team can carry a transaction through to completion under pressure. Named staff such as Sally Griffiths, Elis, Matthew, Cheyanne, Lucy, Oliver, Josh V and Leah Moore are singled out for keeping clients informed at every stage, explaining complex title defects in plain terms and bringing a calming presence to what many describe as a stressful process. A point that comes up often is the speed and efficiency of the service, whether meeting a stamp duty deadline or completing within eleven weeks.

Employment law also features, with Karl and Hannah commended for clear, empathetic advice delivered with professionalism and integrity. Reviewers repeatedly mention that queries were answered promptly by phone, that guidance was supportive and informative, and that even when a transaction did not proceed, the team remained helpful and personable. First-time buyers and long-standing clients alike note the same consistency of care, and the wider theme running through the feedback is of a firm that combines technical expertise with genuine communication from instruction through to completion.

We instructed Leah Moore (Bridgend Office) in relation to a sale and purchase, with the latter containing some complicated title defects. Leah was very patient and took the time to explain the defects and the implications these would have as the seller's were unwilling to remedy them, providing clear and straightforward advice. Whilst we did not proceed to exchange, Leah and her wider team were always very helpful, personable and professional whenever we liased with them on both our sale and purchase. Would highly recommend.

I recently completed a leasehold sale today, and I’m really pleased with the service I received from( Tatum Bolt. )The process took some time due to its complexity, but her professionalism, expertise, and dedication were exceptional throughout. She handled everything brilliantly and brought the case to a successful completion today. I’m genuinely grateful for her support and would highly recommend her. I will definitely be returning for my next purchase. MOH.GROUP LTD.

Howells have been acting on behalf of our buyers on a property that we accepted an offer on in May 2024. Howells have been extremely poor throughout the process, which is still not completed in May 2025, one year later. The purchase has been passed onto to multiple different solicitors to deal with, they have made repeated mistakes and taken excessively long periods of time to respond which has delayed the whole process. I would not use Howells to purchase or sell a property.

I was very pleased with the service provided by the Employment Law team. They offered clear, efficient advice while also being understanding and empathetic, a balance that is not easy to achieve. Karl and Hannah were excellent to work with and demonstrated high levels of professionalism and integrity throughout. I felt well supported and confident in the guidance I received. I would not hesitate to recommend them.

I have recently used Sara’s team at Howells for my purchase and sale. We had Cheyanne dealing with our case and she was fantastic! She made sure to always keep us up to date and added a very calming tone to a stressful situation. After some complications with the process I believe that Cheyanne played a huge part in the transaction not falling through. Thank you so much for your help, it is greatly appreciated!

Howells Solicitors supported us throughout our house-buying journey, and they were truly excellent. Lucy and her team especially Oliver, were quick, efficient, and always ready to help whenever we needed guidance. Their professionalism and clear communication made the whole process much smoother, and we’re very grateful for their support.
