My will was re-written by Vanessa Swales. Everything was done very efficiently and all concerned
with the process were very efficient and friendly. I was very happy the whole process. If I ever need a solicitor again I will definitely use them.

Vanessa Swales is calm, experienced, gentle and clear in her approach. we felt fully supported and well informed throughout the process and were always able to get hold of her easily with any questions we have had. She reassured us and went at our pace and I remain comfortable that I can go back to her at any point in the future should I have any questions

I have used the services of Slee Blackwell on a few occasions- for Power of Attorney, in the selling of a house and the writing of two wills.
Vanessa Swales was extremely helpful, explained things clearly and with a personal touch.
The fees were reasonable.
I can highly recommend this firm of solicitors.

I was very impressed with the efficiency and expertise of Vanessa.
She presents in a calm manner which really helps when working through what is required in covering all aspects of making a will. Vanessa when through all aspects so nothing was forgotten or omitted.
I feel confident that I have my affairs in order.
I would recommend Vanessa.
