Excellent guidance and organisation

Naomi Ireson gave me confidence from the beginning. Her approach was clear, calm, and highly professional, and I appreciated the way she handled a complex matter with care and expertise. She also organised her team very well, which made the whole process feel structured and confidence-inspiring. I felt well guided throughout and would gladly recommend her.

Thank you

A big thank you to Naomi Ireson and her team (Sharnie Jenkins) for helping me at a most difficult time in my life. After the death of my husband and having a caveat slapped on his estate, they helped me to get probate through. And were always ready to give help and advice when needed. I would recommend anyone to use Naomi and her team .

Contentious Probate

I had the privilege of working with Naomi Ireson during a deeply emotional and complex contentious probate case, and I can’t praise her enough. Naomi was a force of nature — smart, compassionate, and utterly brilliant at what she does. Her guidance, expertise, and sheer determination carried me through one of the most challenging periods of my life. From the very beginning, Naomi and her team made me feel completely looked after. They navigated sensitive family dynamics with grace and professionalism, always keeping me informed and reassured. Thanks to her meticulous approach and unwavering dedication, we reached a settlement that brought closure and peace. I genuinely don’t know how I would’ve managed without her. I’ll be singing her praises to anyone who’ll listen! If you’re facing a contentious probate dispute, I wholeheartedly recommend Naomi Ireson and the team at Slee Blackwell Solicitors. They are, quite simply, the best.

Inheritance act

Over the last year I have been working with Naomi and her team (Sharnie Jenkins and Jolie Lambert), to make a claim under the Inheritance act against my late father's will. Throughout this time, they have been extremely professional, helpful and communication is excellent. I am more than grateful for all they have done to help me and would not only recommend them, but wouldn't hesitate to use them again. I have felt 100% confident that they would lead me to the best outcome and trusted them implicitly. Thank you so much!

I had an enquiry about a will and probate, not to pursue but more so after some advice before I took any further. I Liased with Naomi and she was very helpful and went beyond what I expected to help me from just an enquiry. I shall use them if I need to take any further legal action. Thanks for your help!
