We were asked the following question on behalf of a client's sibling and provided our reply in the accompanying post. My sister has just fled from her home with her baby because she was suffering domestic abuse.

When the going gets tough, the tough get going and that's Terri Kirk at Howells.

We needed to complete a very quick purchase transaction and Terri came up with the goods, contracts exchanged and completed within 4 days!! - Great communication all the way. I would say ask for her personally but I don't think she would appreciate that! Thanks again.

We instructed Richard Jones and his team for our purchase on our new property. We just wanted to say thank you so much for all your help making the purchase of our new home smooth and simple. We are both very grateful for everything you and your team have done. Rebecca Bewick in particular, your service was superb and we don’t think that it could get better. It’s very rare to find the sort of service that you gave us. You managed to get us through a few obstacles and we really appreciated your knowledge and advice. We will be recommending you to our friends and family. Once again, thank you!

We a property to sale in Reading that we had unsuccessfully sold for about two years , We had been told by another of Howells that we should speak to Richard Jones ,and is team where very good .

After having a meeting with Richard we appointed him to act for with the sale , and after four months we sold the property , all the team worked very hard ,Rebecca kept us up to date at all times and we would recommend them to anybody.

Just sold a property using the services of Howells solicitors. I can’t recommend them highly enough, they kept me updated at every stage of the sale. Jo’s team, and in particular Chloe, (Newport) were fantastic at communicating and letting me know what was happening. Many thanks.

I’m so impressed with Howells solicitors, first time buyers and it was made so easy and simple. Helen Perkins is a great solicitor and she made sure everything was correct. I couldn’t recommend them enough!!

I would highly recommend Howells solicitors. After a difficult time and loosing our first property, Howells solicitors continued to work hard to ensure that our second property buy went through quickly and as smoothly as possibly.

I used Howells for the sale of my property in Canton. Helen Shamo and the team always kept me informed and up to date with minimal work or chasing from me. They were on hand with any queries about forms or procedures etc and so i always felt assured i was doing things correctly. Im already using them again for the purchase of my new property.

I have been working with Susie Marsden Allan and her team on the Lease and Lease agreement for a commercial property. Susie and Laura have been so helpful during this process and have been able to guide me with such professionalism and knowledge. I have very much enjoyed the experience and will definitely recommend Howells to other colleagues in my field.



Thank you both!

I could not fault the staff members involved in my purchasing of our new home. They were aways quick to respond and helpful in the matters when needed.

Huge thanks to Howells Solicitors Caerphilly for helping and advising us through the part ex change of our house and subsequent purchase of our new house. Throughout the process we were dealt with professionally and politely. On one occasion we dropped in to Howells Caerphilly to query something and both my husband and I met with Richard who spent time explaining the answer to our concerns. I would strongly recommend using Howells Solicitors to anyone and will take great pleasure in dealing with Howells in the future, should I need legal advice.

Howells was amazing helping us buy our first home, they went through every thing with us and any time we needed them all we had to do was call we had regular communication keeping us updated on what we needed to do or what was going to happen next. Great service would recommend them.

Howells have been amazing managing 2 aborted sales and 1 completed sale for us over the last 12 months. Every step of the way they kept us informed, were responsive and worked with professionalism and dedication. Howells answered our calls, worked hard to progress matters even with difficult purchasers and we would recommend the team to anyone requiring conveyancing. We will absolutely use Howells again and personally thank Tania Garcia and her team for their support. Great firm, you will not be disappointed.

Howells are one of the most efficient solicitors I have ever experienced. Their communication is superb and they always did everything as quick as possible to ensure I had the best service. My emails would be responded to almost immediately or certainly within the hour. Staff are very friendly and can't do enough to help you. It was a very stressful time selling two properties and purchasing one at the same time however Howells made it as stress free as possible. I would without a doubt use Howells for anything in the future and certainly would and already have recommended them to friends and family.

Howells Solicitors Swansea were fantastic for my house purchase. We needed to complete within 3 weeks after our previous solicitors had strung us along then let us down, but Howells sorted a miracle & got us in our house on time. Thanks to Rachael & Emma & the team in Swansea!

Howells Solicitors Caerphilly have been brilliant. We have just purchased our first family home and they have kept us up to date every step of the way and explained the process and how it works. We moved into our new home on 9th Feb and could not be happier.

Fantastic service, thank you �

Excellent service from Genette’s team, in particular Emma. The process of buying our first home was made simple - will definitely recommend your services.

Can't fault this team of people. I got given a deadline for my house completion date. And they worked so hard to ensure that it was done and completed in a timely but professional matter. X

Brilliant service from the sale of my old house to the purchase of my new house, Sara Miles and her team were fantastic. I will definitely be using Howells again in future if I need a solicitor, Thank you very much.

Absolutely amazing!! They worked so hard, especially Rebecca Jones. I was able to speak to her every time I called and she did everything so quickly and I didn't have to repeat anything! I would 100% recommend using Howells Solicitors. We genuinely thought we were going to lose out on an amazing property and then Howells started their work and we completed in less than a week. Thank you so much Howells!!
