Outstanding service

We have recently sold our house and purchased a cottage, using 2 different solicitors. The difference between conveyancing experience is extreme. Slee Blackwell has been a dream to work with and made our purchase a stress free and exciting time.

Fantastic experience

I would not hesitate to recommend Slee and Blackwell solicitors. I needed a new tenancy lease to be drawn up and Emma and her team were extremely professional and swift to get everything completed for me ,I was kept informed throughout the whole process. The price was very reasonable in comparison to other firms too. A very satisfied customer !

Excellent service from Kirsty Jones

I recently sold a property and Kirsty at Slee Blackwell was incredibly speedy and professional. She was empathetic, communicative and always helpful. Kirsty has a great team supporting her and I would not hesitate to use Kirsty again or to recommend her to a friend or colleague. Kirsty got the job done and even our estate agent was impressed with her professionalism and work ethic. Thank you so much ☺️

Transfer of Equity

Slee Blackwell provided all necessary conveyancing and legal services and advice to enable the title transfer for a Potentially Exempt Transfer (PET) of a property involving three parties in three different locations. All transactions were conducted online promptly and efficiently. Communications were excellent throughout the process which was completed in just over two weeks.

Excellent Support Following a Serious Dog Attack Incident

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.

Review of Jen Law acting as defence solicitor in criminal court

We needed an experienced solicitor for a difficult case against my grandson linking us with an excellent barrister and explaining the processes. Also overseeing the scary court appearances. Delighted to say that Jen was very professional, worked long hours for us and oversaw the culmination of months’ stress with positive support throughout. Grandson was acquitted of all charges. Well done to Jen and her team!

I can’t thank Carly and her team enough for everything they have done for me. I couldn’t fault a moment during the entire process. Carly took time to explain everything clearly and factually. They put up with some very dark times from me whilst this process was ongoing and helped or advised as much as they possibly could. They are extremely supportive and get the job done where they can. Going through this has been enormously hard for me and without the help from Carly and her team I don’t think I would have got through it. Thank you so much Carly for everything you’ve done, for your advice, guidance and help. If I could give more than 5* I would. I highly recommend Slee Blackwell Solicitors and Carly to anyone.

Made an appointment with Erin at this firm, when I called to confirm on the day, I was told they had been contacted by another person who had cancelled my appointment! I was never contacted to query or check the circumstances and had my time wasted in that day. More importantly I was shocked that they wouldn’t contact me to explain their decision. When I asked for an explanation I was told I would receive a call back, but no one ever did. I cannot consider any company who treats a client in this way as professional. I would avoid if possible.
