I contacted Melodie about changing my will. She responded quickly and we had two face-to-face meetings to finalise the will. Throughout the process she was thoughtful and considerate of my needs and very through in detailing the requests I made. A very efficient service carried out with sensitivity.

Amy has been brilliant since she took over our case. She is very efficient and gets the job done. Always reply’s to my emails straight away and pushes to get things done as quickly as possible. Without amy we wouldn’t be getting the justice our daughter deserves.

Collected on:
I needed to engage a solicitor to help me through the process of probate, updating my will and setting up LPA following my husband's death. My solicitor, Melodie Shelton-Heath, took me through the whole process in a professional and friendly manner. I was extremely grateful for her expertise and advice on all aspects of my case. I would have no hesitation in recommending her, abd Howells solicitors to others.

Tried to see someone on short notice but was only told an appointment for a week's time was available. My situation was resolved by this time so I cancelled. The receptionist is very kind and helpful and has a friendly and very attractive face for greeting people upon arrival.
