I cannot thank Alex Barley enough for his incredible support with the clinical negligence claim following the tragic passing of my wife. My wife was incorrectly administered a Grade 4 (major harm) dose of Alemtuzumab instead of her prescribed medication, and sadly passed away seven months later. Throughout this incredibly painful and complex process, Alex was exceptionally professional, empathetic, and kept me informed every step of the way. Thanks to his dedication and hard work, we achieved a satisfactory result. I highly recommend Alex and the services of Slater Heelis during such difficult times.

Road traffic accident with an injury needing a hip replacement

Very prompt response. Simon Adamson engaged and listened attentively to my parents and worked at a pace that my parents were comfortable with. He explained the process clearly and simply. Simon always communicated on a regular basis and was approachable and available. 10 out of 10 for everything he did. Very respectful and courteous and an asset to your practice.

Exceptional Support and Outstanding Service

Simon Adamson provided outstanding support throughout my mum’s personal injury claim following her Uber accident. As my mum is an international citizen, the case involved additional complexities, but Simon handled everything with exceptional professionalism, expertise, and patience. Throughout the entire process, he kept us informed, explained every stage clearly, and was always available to answer our questions. His communication was excellent, and he made what could have been a very stressful experience much easier to manage, despite the challenges involved. Thanks to Simon’s dedication and hard work, my mum’s claim was successfully resolved, and the compensation was received without any issues. We are truly grateful for his commitment, attention to detail, and the care he showed our family from start to finish. I am extremely grateful for everything Simon did for my mum and our family. His professionalism, dedication, and support were greatly appreciated, and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone in need of an excellent solicitor.

Crime/ Criminal Defence

A superb solicitor - I cannot recommend her too highly

Rachel was excellent from the very word go: returning my Friday afternoon initial phone call on Saturday Morning! Not many solicitors do that. And then at each and every stage, her advice was clear, helpful and accurate. It was so good having her on board, especially as she had had some experience of dealing with my organization and knew a little of how their processes work. She was kindness itself when the day of the Police Interview came round and then taking the initiative in contacting the police subsequently to see where we were up to. And then relaying me the excellent news that the enquiry had been concluded, "no further action". Thank you for her very helpful follow-up letter, outlining possible rights of appeal: always good to know the whole picture, so that nothing can come as a complete surprise. Well, nothing after the bombshell of the initial complaint, I cannot praise Rachel enough: she came to me "highly recommended" and I can only pass on that recommendation to anyone else looking for a first-rate Solicitor. I would give her "six stars" if I could!

Excellent in every way.

I received absolutely excellent “ Gold Standard” and first class advice from Mike, who was extremely helpful , supremely knowledgeable, and his advice really cut through to the heart of the matter. You feel as though you have a legal ‘titan’ in your corner. He is no-nonsense and just wants to secure the best possible outcome for his clients. You can tell that he cares about his clients and endeavours to secure the best possible outcome. He is a real diamond of a person and a pleasure to speak to. Thank you.

I cannot recommend Slater Heelis highly enough - during what was an extremely difficult and upsetting time for me and my children, all aspects of my divorce were dealt with compassionately and speedily. The advice and support I received was excellent and the staff were wonderful - caring, supportive, understanding and compassionate - which made an enormous difference at such a difficult time.
