I have given 4 starts as we had some difficulties with the Swansea office at first. However, once our case was transferred to Joanna Ingles’ team at the Cardiff office, everything turned around. Joanna and Chloe were absolutely brilliant — professional, responsive, and committed to getting our sale completed smoothly. Their hard work and dedication really made the difference. Thank you to all Joanna Ingles’ team for seeing it through!
Very efficient service. I am very very pleased and they are highly recommended.
A really positive experience. Gillian Gamble looked after my sister and I really well. It was many years since either of us had sold a house. Gillian clearly explained the process in language we could understand. She helped us navigate the sale from beginning to end with clear instructions, fantastic communication, speed, and a very friendly manner. Even our estate agent commented on Gillian’s efficiency, and clear communication. We can’t thank her enough for making the whole experience painless.
Jo and the team are very quick getting back to emails, and are at the end of the phone too. We have used them twice now for selling investment properties, and are very satisfied with their services. We'd definitely used them again!
Very happy with the professionalism and excellent service me and my partner received from Kirsty and her team! Nothing was too much bother and you were all soo kind throughout the whole house buying process. We were advised to use you when initially going through Peter Alan Estate agents, we were soo happy we did as cannot fault you enough! Communication was excellent and I feel you went above and beyond to keep us updated and put our minds at ease. I will come back to use you in future should we need a solicitor for anything else!! Thank you for being amazing throughout this process, you made the house buying process a lot less stressful!

Fantastic service from Kirsty’s Team for our recent house purchase. Excellent communication from start to finish and throughout a long process (due to a delay in probate and no fault of the solicitors) but we were kept informed and updated regularly throughout. All staff we dealt with were friendly and highly professional. Would highly recommend this company and will return for any legal matters we require assistance with in the future. Thank you.

The team at Howells were superb throughout my personal injury claim. From start to finish, their advice, guidance and support was reassuring. They handled everything with professionalism and care, keeping me fully informed at every stage.
Thanks to their hard work and expertise, I successfully secured damages in the County Court , all on a no win, no fee basis. I couldn’t have asked for better representation and would highly recommend Howells to anyone needing a reliable and dedicated legal team.

Purchase of flat took forever. Estate agent kept having to call them to tell them to hurry. Girl who dealt with my claim I was in school with and she spelt my name wrong in all correspondence and its even now wrong on the land registry.
Depressing when someone at that level isn't able to spell, but were in 2025.

Three times we have dealt with Lucy's Team from Howells Solicitors in Cardiff over the past 7 years. They have never let us down and been a pleasure to deal with. The team have always been so helpful and informative when we have needed their help and advice. They have been so proactive and efficient. We're based in Cheshire, and our estate agents have said how impressed they were with Howells compared to the other buyers' solicitors. We can't thank you all enough!

Excellent conveyancing by Katy at Howells in Swansea SA1.
A straightforward process as we sold our property through Howells, everything was through digital ID and on line form filling. We were pleased with the high level of calm and experienced communication throughout the process
Would highly recommend and will use again.
excellent communication, available when needed, answered queries and emails promptly. Very happy with the service and would definitely recommend them.
Kayleigh Davies-Lewis.
A massive thank you to Kayleigh at Howells Legal. As a first time buyer I was nervous but she put me at ease. The first part of the process is naturally quieter but had an early unexpected email from Kayleigh that most bits that needed signing off had been done. I was super happy with the dedication and turn around time! Towards the end she was always warm and open to my calls due to issues my side, and didn't make me feel like I was being a nuisance. She was prompt in rectifying bits to get the completion date underway. She also knows her stuff and had great knowledge so trusted her fully as my solicitor.
Just wanted to say a massive thanks! Loving my new home!
I had a purchase case that needing completing in a timely fashion, after being let down by another firm.
Rhiannon and Elaine were fantastic. They were always very responsive and thorough, and I did not have to wait around.
I would highly recommend Rhiannon and Elaine.
Kirsty Hussien and her team dealt with the process of purchasing our house in Cwmbran South Wales.
Kirsty kept us up to date throughout the process and advised us as to what was needed.
Prior to this, we put an offer in on another house which we decided to pull out of. We found a suitable house that was £6k cheaper and we decided to use the same solicitors as they already knew us and we're glad we did.
As we were cash buyers, Kirsty made us aware that we could sign a disclaimer for tail end checks that were taking longer than necessary, due mainly to the seller's solicitors, who lost their marriage certificate. They needed that because the land registry requested it, as they weren't married when they purchased the house.
I would definitely recommend this professional and caring legal team to oversee your legal requirements.
Our home move was an absolute breeze! Sara Miles and her team were efficient, communicative and professional throughout. We expected a stressful time with our purchase but we agreed our offer on the 20th June and were moved in on the 22nd August. I cannot thank Howells enough, we had some very bad news around the time of our move and the processes caused us no stress whatsoever. I cannot recommend them enough. Thank you so much all for everything. I couldn't recommend Sara and the Team highly enough!
I cannot recommend Karl highly enough. From the very beginning he was supportive, kind and genuinely sympathetic to my situation. My case related to employment law, and he took the time to explain everything clearly, kept to all agreed timelines and ensured I was always updated on the next steps. His professionalism, knowledge and care gave me real confidence throughout the process. Karl handled my case extremely well and I am both very happy and grateful for the outcome.
Responsive, efficient and professional service in my dealings.
Thankful for the methodical approach to explain the details of the process and the implementations.
