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."

Exceptional solicitor – case fully dismissed

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I am incredibly grateful to my solicitor, Jen, for her outstanding representation. Thanks to her hard work, dedication, and expertise, my case was completely dismissed.From start to finish, she was excellent in every possible way. She was exceptionally proactive, always staying ten steps ahead and ensuring no detail was overlooked. Her work ethic is unmatched, and it was clear throughout my case that she was working tirelessly on my behalf.I cannot thank her enough for her support during this time. If you need a brilliant, hard-working, and highly effective solicitor, I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Well recommended

I was recommended to use Jen for my particular issue, never even had to speak to her as things were done by email which in some cases are easier. All relevant paperwork was sorted as expected and the outcome I wanted achieved. Would recommend to anyone.

Exceptional service

Jen Law has represented my husband and me for the past six years through an extremely sensitive and traumatic case. Throughout that time, she gave her all and showed unwavering dedication, professionalism, and compassion. Jen always kept things honest and realistic, guiding us through every stage with integrity and genuine care. Her support meant more to us than words can express, and the fact that she was there with us at the very end meant the world. Thanks to Jen’s hard work, commitment, and expertise, we achieved the best outcome we could have hoped for. Because of her, my family can finally begin to rebuild our lives and look towards the future. Jen, you are a superstar. There simply aren’t enough words in the dictionary to express the gratitude we feel for everything you have done for us. We will never forget the difference you have made in our lives. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

I will be sure to share your incredibly kind words with Jen, knowing she made such a difference means the world to her and the entire firm. We wish you and your husband nothing but peace and the absolute best moving forward.

From the moment we made our first contact with Jen, we have had nothing but friendly, swift and accurate advice. Whilst not their client directly (it was our son who was involved with a case), they have understood that because of his learning difficulties, we had an important role to play in supporting both our son and their approach to the case, and as such have been kept constantly up to date with progress and have welcomed and valued their communication with us.

Amazing lawyer

I was represented by Jen at the start of this year. Before having representation, I spent two years being strung along through a drawn-out legal case by the CPS, with multiple adjournments. Jen took over my case and was extremely professional and thorough. She picked everything apart with a fine-tooth comb, stood up and made herself count when I needed it, and had everything settled within 90 days, achieving an outcome ten times better than I could ever have asked or hoped for.

Dear Gary. Thank you for your kind feedback. We are delighted to hear that Jen was able to step in and provide such thorough, professional, and determined representation during what sounds like a very prolonged and difficult process for you. It is particularly pleasing to know that she was able to achieve a positive resolution within a short timeframe and deliver an outcome that exceeded your expectations. We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and your recommendation.

Our go to

We hired Kirsty Jones in 2023 as first time buyers from outside the UK, as recommended by friends. She was so quick and thorough and we had a great experience with her and her team, so when we sold our house in 2026, we got a few quotes from other solicitors but ultimately wanted to work with Kirsty again since we trusted her efficiency. Once again, she was always quick to respond and we knew she wasn’t wasting any time. She will always be our go-to for property buying and selling! Lauren and Sue are also prompt and make the whole process easy to understand.

Help/support securing house deposit

From the moment I was put in touch with Matthew, I was completely put at ease. Being terminal ill, I struggle to retain information due to brain fog, you very kindly broke down the information, and explained it in a way I could understand and remember. Matthew's professionalism, and knowledge was outstanding. Matthew was in daily contact with myself about the matter I was dealing with, and constantly gave me different options to choose from. I would highly recommend Matthew, and I wish him the best of luck in the future.

Excellent service

I along with 3 other beneficiaries instructed Slee Blackwell to defend our Aunts Will which was being contested. We found their services to be excellent. We were represented by Sabrina Morey and Matt Steele who communicated well throughout the whole process which was particularly necessary as this was a first for us. Couldn’t recommend them highly enough. Thank you for all your help in getting a satisfactory resolution. So glad we moved to a law firm that deals with contentious probate.

A pleasure to deal with.

My wife and I wanted to update our wills and also seek help and guidance regarding the setting up of Last Power of Attorney for ourselves. Zoe was extremely clear in her explanations and advice regarding all that would be involved. She also offered us appropriate aspects to consider without putting us under any pressure to do so. It has been a very reassuring, friendly, and professional experience, and we would not hesitate to use her services again if ever the need occurred. Thank you Zoe

We honestly couldn't have asked for a better conveyancer than Kirsty Jones and her team. From start to finish, Kirsty was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and efficient, making what can often be a stressful process feel straightforward and well-managed. She helped my wife and me purchase our forever home, and we always felt we were in safe hands. Communication was excellent throughout, she was quick to respond to any questions, proactive in keeping everything moving, and her expertise gave us complete confidence every step of the way. I genuinely can't recommend Kirsty and her team highly enough. If you're buying or selling a property and want someone who is responsive, knowledgeable, and keeps things moving, she's the person to use. Thank you!
