Medical negligence
I had an awful experience during the birth of my baby and I knew things could have been better but reluctant to speak to a solicitor as in the end both me and baby were fine. I found the courage to speak to Howells and namely Helen, I felt really listened to and I’m grateful they have decided to take on my case. I will write a review at the next stage but if it’s even crossed your mind, do what I did and just pick up the phone as you may be suprised.

Very polite and professional. Always offering good advice and support.
I reached out to Howell Solicitors for help in writing a second complaint letter after my hand operation went wrong three times in hospital. They have been supportive in guiding me through the process to determine whether medical negligence was involved. We are currently awaiting a response from the hospital, and so far, I appreciate their assistance and professionalism.

Excellent
Helpful and Professional Solicitor
I had a really positive experience with this solicitor. They were approachable, clear in their communication, and took the time to explain everything in plain terms, which really put me at ease. Nothing felt rushed, and they were always quick to respond to any questions I had. Their support made the whole process much smoother than I expected. I’d happily recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and friendly legal help.
