Louise is an outstanding legal representative and a consummate professional, whose exceptional knowledge, expertise and professionalism are matched by her approachable and reassuring manner. I would unreservedly recommend Louise to anyone seeking first-class legal representation.
Throughout the entire process, her communication and correspondence were of the highest standard. From beginning to end, Louise ensured that I was fully informed, taking the time to explain every aspect clearly and ensuring that I understood the position at every stage.
Her attention to detail, professionalism and dedication were truly exceptional. I always felt that my case was in safe and capable hands, and that my best interests were her priority.
Louise is a credit to her profession, and I could not recommend her highly enough.

Michelle at Louise Howard helped me sell my property and purchase a new one in what I thought would be a very slow and arduous process however, Michelle's amazing handling of both the sale and purchase simultaneously allowed things to move incredibly smoothly and we had both closed in less than 3 months. I cannot emphasize enough how impressed I was with Michelle's knowledge of the whole process and complications that may come up as well as finding the time to respond incredibly quickly to any stupid questions I had. I will never use anyone else going forward as this has really set a new standard for me. Thank you for all your help and I hope Louise Howard appreciates how good you are at your job!

Just want to express my appreciation for the sterling efforts of Louise on my behalf in a recent case which resulted in a successful conclusion. Her efforts were professional and thorough and she kept us up to speed over several years as to how things were proceeding. It had dragged on because of the negative attitude of a corporate body who defied reality and denied responsibility? The intervention of Louise, an excellent authority in her profession, and the sage advice of the barrister completely vindicated our stance; sometimes life favours the good guys!

We would highly recommend Michelle Hynes of Louise Howard Solicitors. Michelle was excellent in looking after the recent sale of our property. From the initial meeting to the completion of the sale she assisted us in a very professional and friendly manner. She was super attentive, responsive throughout, highly knowledgeable and a pleasure to deal with. We were really impressed with her attention to detail and her willingness to explain everything to us.

Louise and her team were fantastic to work with on my mortgage application and provided personal and honest advice as I navigated moving into my new home. As a single application for a mortgage, the legal aspects were daunting, but Louise and her team were incredibly helpful and provided me continuous support throughout the process. I highly recommend for any legal work you require.
