I dealt with Kirsty who was very friendly and approachable yet professional. She explained everything step by step to me as I have never dealt with selling a property before. She kept me updated and was quick to respond when I had any questions. I would recommend this company & Kirsty.

I would like to thank Slee & Blackwell and in particular Kirsty Jones for the top class service received throughout my house buying process. For my first time using a solicitors service I was a little apprehensive but your clear instructions and quick replies put me at ease and has made the process stress free. I will not hesitate to recommend and use again.

As a first time buyer for myself, it was very stressful moving from a flat with my partner to purchasing our first house together. I’m not sure whether it was supposed to take over 6 months to move in and with the buyer of the flat having the same solicitors on his end, clearly poor communication was at hand.
From being CC’d in to other peoples emails and having others CC’d into our own, yes it was amended and apologies were made to then finding out through another email sent to us by mistake (we were CC’d into this email) that our solicitor had left and our case was handed over to Nicole. We rang up to enquire and only then was told about this.
Months of push backs for moving in dates and completion dates were held back and luckily the house we bought, the company were SO good to us and understanding because they have had issues before with you.
The charges we were incurred, I think was unfair and I will be issuing an email to appeal to this because I don’t think you earned your salary for working on our case. We had to chase you for updates and we’re shut down with we are doing our best and haven’t heard from the other solicitors or banks….tsb is opposite you in Barnstaple and I don’t see why you couldn’t ask the buyers solicitors who work for your company.
It even came to the housing company to intervene to push for you all to work together to get our contracts exchanged and finally get us into our house after 6 long and stressful months
And I can’t even select my solicitor on here which says a lot.
I will not be recommending you.

A huge thank you to Caroline Bulpett. As an estate agent I've dealt with numerous solicitors in my time, and the service received and updates as well as hard work has been truly grateful. I would highly recommend this firm if you're thinking of buying or selling a property. Thank you, from Connells Estate Agents in Wednesbury.

Slee Blackwell Solicitors are an award-winning, Legal 500 recommended law firm, serving clients nationwide. 2020 was our centenary year. We have come a long way in the past one hundred plus years, but we remain committed to the principles of our founder Ernest Slee to provide the highest levels of professional service. We are proud to have been awarded Lexcel accreditation, the Law Society’s legal practice quality mark for excellence in legal practice management and legal client care. Our clients therefore have the peace of mind of knowing that their legal affairs are in safe hands and that their interests are being looked after by an established, accredited law firm that is dedicated to providing a first class service. While we provide a full range of legal services, we are known nationally for our expertise in a number of niche areas of law, including inheritance disputes, medical negligence and animal law. Our work has attracted a great deal of media attention. Medical negligence Lawyer, Oliver Thorne, has for instance been celebrated for spearheading the fight for justice of hundreds of British PIP breast implant victims in the French courts, as well as campaigning for the rights of mothers and babies who have been let down by our health services. Partner James McNally (who has been shortlisted for Claimant Lawyer of the Year at the 2021 National Personal Injury Awards) has been dubbed 'The Dog Bite Solicitor' by The Guardian newspaper.
