Howells Legal Limited is a licensed body authorised by the Solicitors Regulation Authority since November 2021 and recorded under SRA number 607741. The SRA record lists 4 practising offices: the head office at Fitzalan House, Cardiff, CF24 0EL, plus 3 further offices in Bridgend, Newport and Swansea. Its constitution is recorded as incorporated company (limited by shares).
In its most recent annual return the firm told the SRA it delivered work in 9 areas of law: Wills and trusts, Children, Employment, Probate, Commercial property, Litigation, Family, Residential property and Personal Injury. Because residential property is among them, the SRA Transparency Rules require the firm to publish its conveyancing prices on its own website; a conveyancing price page was found at howellslegal.co.uk on 28 August 2026.
The head office postcode CF24 0EL falls within Cardiff (Wales), where the SRA register lists 142 authorised firms with a practising office, 64 of them reporting residential property work.

Areas of law reported to the SRA
Self-reported by the firm in its most recent annual return to the SRA ("the areas of law that the law firm has told us they delivered"). A lagging description of past work, not a live service list, a specialism claim or a quality mark; it may be up to a year old and is blank for newly authorised firms.
Because Howells Legal Limited reports residential property work, it must publish its conveyancing price, charging basis, disbursements, VAT treatment and timescales on its website. Read them at howellslegal.co.uk (conveyancing price page located 28 August 2026). Compare against the verified Cardiff band of £650 to £1,600 plus VAT and the disbursements you will pay on top.
