Rebecca Howard

Technical Conveyancing Solicitor

Residential Conveyancing

Rebecca Howard is a technical conveyancing solicitor within the residential conveyancing department. Rebecca draws on her broad range of experience in property matters to provide technical support to the conveyancing teams.

Rebecca trained in Manchester at a legal aid firm in Moss Side, where her areas of practice were criminal defence, prison law, family, housing, immigration and actions against the police.

While she worked full-time as a trainee, Rebecca obtained her PGDL at the College of Law in Birmingham, before going on to do her LPC at the College of Law in Chester.

After qualifying in 2004, Rebecca relocated back to the Midlands and moved into conveyancing, which she has practiced ever since – with some forays into commercial property and agricultural law.

Rebecca was a partner at her last firm where, as well as fee earning, she managed the residential property department. Rebecca also implemented and maintained the anti-money laundering and legal practice compliance at her previous firm.

What Rebecca loves about the job: The ever-changing landscape of conveyancing, and the daily challenges this brings to the role in providing assistance to the fee earners and their teams.

We returned to Askew's for a second time and again were delighted with their service. Maira was efficient, responded to emails and calls quickly, and ensured a smooth sale, despite some delays along the way. At all times she was professional and calm, knowledgable and inspired confidence in us. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Askews.

We worked with Sunitum Dhillon on our property sale and purchase. Sunitum went out of her way to help us on our property purchase which had many challenging heardles to overcome. She worked above and beyond to ensure the property purchase could move forward and we are extremely grateful for all the help she gave (outside of her normal remit) on both of our transactions. It was clear that Sunitum cared about our sale and purchase, and communication was thorough and clear, and we felt very well looked after. She advised us properly and ensured we were best placed to make difficult decisions during the process. She communicated extremely well with our onward purchase solicitor, and problem-solved together, as the sellers we were buying from were tricky, and the estate agent non-existent. Sunitum spoke to us regularly, and corresponded with our seller's solicitor on the phone, which is a rareity these days. We also liked that there was a technical team available to check things for us as we were buying a Listed property, and filling out the protocol forms online made the first steps a lot easier as we didn't need to attend the office. Sunitum, thank you again for all of your hard work and everything you have done for us. We gratefully appreciate the extra mile you put in to help us move, and we are very happy in our new home. We reccomend working with Sunitum and her team.

Just wanted to give a quick thanks to Askews Legal team, namely Shyam and Candice who have both helped a case I recently had to deal with. The team were very helpful and supportive throughout and gave us clear advice as and when necessary. I would highly recommend Askews Legal, so once again, thank you very much from myself and all of my family.
