Strategic advice once again reflective of Mike's extensvise experience

Unfortunately I've had to call on Mike's legal skills twice now, but once again Mike not only delivered on what he set out to do, he ensured I was able to keep a grip on the outcome well ahead of time. This was a nonsensical matter in the greater scheme of things but he adroitly managed the process to ensure a sensible outcome was achieve. Really knows his stuff, navigates choice of Counsel exceptionally well and is able to naviagate the 'real world' of dealing with the CPS and Police with aplomb.

Thank you so much for the review! While it's unfortunate you needed our services twice, we are glad Mike could deliver for you once again. It’s great to hear that his real-world experience with the CPS and police, along with his choice of Counsel, helped secure a sensible outcome and kept you in control of the process throughout.

Highly Recommend

Alexandra represented me throughout a very difficult and emotional two-year court case, and her professionalism and dedication were exceptional from start to finish. She was always friendly, approachable, and incredibly easy to talk to, which immediately put me at ease during what was an extremely stressful time. She took the time to explain everything clearly, making sure I understood every stage of the process, and her knowledge and expertise gave me complete confidence in her advice. What really stood out was how relatable and supportive she was. She genuinely cared about achieving the best possible outcome while also making me feel heard and reassured throughout the entire process. I am truly grateful for all of her hard work, guidance, and unwavering support. If you're looking for a solicitor who is knowledgeable, compassionate, and highly professional, I cannot recommend Alexandra enough.

“Brilliant Solicitor Who Delivered a Winning Result – She Absolutely Delivered!”

I can’t recommend my solicitor highly enough. From the very first meeting, she took full control of my case with clear advice, professionalism, and genuine care. She worked tirelessly, kept me updated every step of the way, and fought hard on my behalf. Thanks to her expertise and determination, we achieved a complete win. She made a stressful situation manageable and ultimately turned it into a success. If you need someone you can truly trust to get results, look no further. Outstanding service and a fantastic outcome. Thank you!

Excellent legal guidance and support

Navigating the legal system can be an extremely daunting process, but from my very first phone call with Joanne, I felt like I was in safe hands. Joanne helped me understand the process and exactly what was required from me at every stage, which made me feel not only supported but also more confident. She is knowledgeable, patient, professional and personable and provides an exemplary service. I highly recommend working with her.

Camilla Burton-Baddeley dealt with my case. This particular case, although initially fairly straight forward, became complex and drawn out due to complications and delays beteen the parties involved. Camilla dealt with the issues in a professional manner and showed a good degree of patience where others may have been very frustrated. I am satisfied with the outcome despite it taking longer than expected. There is still one matter outstanding with Slater Heelis, my case and the Ombudsman but this is not in Camilla's hands; I would expect Slater Heelis to assist in expediting the outcome. Would I recommend Slater-Heelis to others? Yes.

Daniel was excellent for a service relating to a notice to terminate which we had contacted him for. We contacted him on short notice and requested this to be sorted fast, which once we had explained to Daniel the situation he was very helpful in. He provided the conclusion ahead of the required date, breaking our options down, and giving us competent advice. Would recommend highly to anyone else looking for help in this sort of matter. Thanks Daniel!
