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.

Excellent Experience with Slee Blackwell

We used Slee Blackwell to assist with the selling and buying of our Home. Our Solicitor was Helen Hine and she was amazing throughout all the ups and downs that come with buying and selling property. Helen was very efficient, proffesional and approachable. Nothing was ever to much to ask and Helen was really good at making information clear so we understood questions and was always only a phone call or email away. Thank you so much for helping us move into our dream home.

House purchase

We honestly can’t thank Louise Langabeer at Slee Blackwell enough for all her help with our house purchase. Louise was brilliant from start to finish — so responsive, efficient and just really easy to deal with. She was always on the ball and kept things moving, which made such a difference during a very stressful process. Things became particularly complicated because of complications arising from another conveyancing company, and Louise ended up going above and beyond to get things sorted and make sure we were still able to complete on time. We genuinely don’t think we would have got there without her. She was an absolute pleasure to deal with and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone. Couldn’t recommend Louise and her fantastic team highly enough!

We were first time buyers and felt very out of our depth, Kirsty and her team were fantastic from start to finish. Our vendor made the process very difficult but Kirsty did everything she could and pushed to get us completed on our deadline. I couldn't recommend them enough!

Excellent professional service

On moving to Devon from Hampshire we decided to find a local solicitor and Helen Hine was recommended to us. I have 30+ years experience in the residential and commercial property market so have had a lot of dealings with solicitors on a daily basis and gave recommendations to Legal 500 for many years. Helen is definitely one of the best solicitors I have dealt with.She has given good advice all the way through despite some issues we had with the other side and is extremely personable. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend both Helen and Slee Blackwell to anybody.

While our purchase was relatively straightforward, I wanted to highlight just how excellent Joanna Smith was. She was always happy to help and nothing too much trouble. Her support and professionalism made the whole process smooth and mostly stress free. Certainly will be using you again.

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!

Best solicitor I’ve ever used

I found Slee Blackwell very professional and I was very fortunate to have Shanna representing me. She is incredibly competent and diligent and her communication skills were first rate. Everything was explained clearly and I was kept fully aware. The transaction was completed slightly later than I had hoped but had it not been for Shannna it would have taken a lot longer. I can not recommend Slee Blackwell enough and Shanna was everything a Solicitor should be. Thank you

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.
