Following a traumatic attack on my dog, Fudge, I contacted Slee Blackwell Solicitors for advice. Most of our communication was carried out by email, which worked very well as I had built up a significant amount of documentation and evidence relating to the incident. The team took the time to review the information I provided, including detailed records, correspondence and supporting evidence. They responded promptly, explained the legal position clearly and provided practical, straightforward advice throughout. Dealing with the aftermath of the attack was incredibly stressful, but their professional and compassionate approach gave me confidence that every aspect of the case had been properly considered. I felt listened to, supported and well informed at each stage. I would not hesitate to recommend Slee Blackwell Solicitors to anyone seeking advice following a dog attack or similar incident.

From requesting the legal position on an issue, to the final advice on possible ways forward the approach has been professional. I have been provided with a full understanding of the relevant law.

Your company has handled this case exceptionally well. We always knew that morally we were in the right, but that did not mean anything until we contacted you. Zoe has worked so hard for us to obtain the fantastic result that she did. Thank you so much, Zoe and Sleeblackwell Solicitors

From the outset, Zoe's expertise in managing an exceptionally complex and challenging matter was outstanding. She immediately understood both the detail and wider implications of the situation, and her prompt advice from our very first contact made all the difference. I felt completely supported throughout. The claim I was required to defend was extensive and challenging in both scope and tone. It could easily have been overwhelming without Zoe’s reliable guidance. She broke down the response process into manageable, strategic steps, always explaining each clearly and without judgment. Her ability to combine close attention to detail with a clear focus on the bigger picture helped keep the case on track and avoided wasted costs, effort, or distraction. Zoe’s judgment regarding when and how to involve both junior and leading counsel was impeccable, and her management of all communications and procedural steps was consistently prompt, thoughtful, and thorough. She was always generous with her time and able to explain complex legal matters in a way I could understand. Her calmness, professionalism, and kindness made a very difficult period significantly more bearable. Thanks to Zoe’s expert handling, we achieved what I wanted at settlement under a private contractual agreement, with no order for costs and without compromising on the factors that were most important to me. Throughout, I trusted Zoe completely. Her integrity, insight, and advocacy gave me confidence even in the most stressful moments. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Zoe brings not only legal excellence but genuine care, and anyone facing a difficult legal situation would be in the safest possible hands with her.
