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."

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.

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!

Reassuringly professional and supportive.

I am the Executor of my late mother’s Estate and I have had quite a rough year dealing with very difficult beneficiaries who refuse to cooperate with the administration. When I was unsure which direction to take, Bronte always offered constructive, considerate advice. She was also very quick to respond to events or questions as they arose.
