Howells Solicitors Limited is a licensed body authorised by the Solicitors Regulation Authority since March 2024 and recorded under SRA number 8007267. The SRA record lists 3 practising offices: the head office at 15-17 Bridge Street, Sheffield, S3 8NL, plus 2 further offices in Barnsley and Rotherham. It also trades as Howells Solicitors. 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 8 areas of law: Family, Residential property, Children, Landlord and tenant, Personal Injury, Wills and trusts, Human rights and Criminal. Because residential property is among them, the SRA Transparency Rules require the firm to publish its conveyancing prices on its own website; a pricing page was found on howells.law on 28 August 2026, although the automated check could not confirm that it covers conveyancing.
The head office postcode S3 8NL falls within Sheffield (Yorkshire and The Humber), where the SRA register lists 102 authorised firms with a practising office, 41 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 Solicitors Limited reports residential property work, it must publish its conveyancing price, charging basis, disbursements, VAT treatment and timescales on its website. A pricing page was found on 28 August 2026 but its conveyancing scope is unconfirmed. Look for a fees page at howells.law or ask the firm for the figures in writing. Compare against the verified Sheffield band of £650 to £1,550 plus VAT and the disbursements you will pay on top.
