Death of our parents and their property sale

Following the death previously of my Mum and more recently Dad, Slee Blackwell have been very helpful and extremely understanding helping us navigate our way through sorting probate etc. The advice given was invaluable and very much appreciated. We then used the conveyancing team to deal with the sale of Dad's bungalow and again, they have been brilliant with their help. Responding to queries to help us navigate our way through the minefield of legal questions asked of us by the buyers' solicitors. The sale has gone through relatively quick, with minimum hassle, at what has been a difficult and emotional time for our family.

from Slee Blackwell Solicitors LLP

Thank you for your kind feedback, and we’re very sorry for your loss. We’re pleased to hear that the team were able to support you with understanding and care during such a difficult time, and that you found their advice helpful while navigating probate and the property matters.

Resolved what seemed to be an impossible situation! Thank you!

I live in the United States when I learned that my mother had passed. The estate was in a really bad mess and things became very hostile and contentious with my only sibling. I consider myself very lucky that Slee Blackwell agreed to take my case. Considering that I reside across the pond communication was smooth and swift. It was a long road to travel but I could not have completed this chapter without the help from Anya and Slee Blackwell Solicitors LLP. I highly recommend this firm and Anya Hoyland should you ever need a lawyer to deal with a contentious inheritance.

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.

Outstanding support during a very difficult property dispute

I cannot thank Anya Hoyland enough for all of her help and support throughout my case. This was an extremely stressful and emotional property dispute that had been ongoing for a long time, and Anya was professional, patient and supportive throughout. She always took the time to explain matters clearly, keep me informed of developments and provide reassurance when needed. What stood out most was that I never felt like just another client. Anya genuinely listened to my concerns, took the time to understand the issues involved, and was always willing to discuss matters whenever I needed guidance or clarification. During some very difficult periods, her calm and professional approach made a huge difference. The matter ultimately achieved a far better outcome than I had feared, and I am incredibly grateful for the work Anya put into helping me reach that position. Throughout the process she remained approachable, responsive and committed to achieving the best possible outcome for me, and I always felt that she genuinely cared about my case. I would not hesitate to recommend Anya to anyone seeking legal representation. Thank you, Anya, for all of your hard work, support and dedication throughout my case. It is very much appreciated.

Joke of a firm. Elizabeth Duncan is the worst solicitor ever, I got £8,000 from a lawsuit that was worth £30,000 I paid for a consultation for a solicitor who read my court case against the NHS and he said that Elizabeth only put forward a clam with regards to the injury’s sustained and nothing else.

We had a great experience with our solicitor, Naomi, throughout our first home purchase. As first-time buyers, we really appreciated the clear communication and guidance at each stage, which made the whole process feel far more manageable. We exchanged contracts last Tuesday and completed on Friday, 1st May, receiving our keys by mid day!. Everything was handled smoothly and efficiently, and we always felt well informed throughout. Thank you, Naomi, for all your hard work in helping us reach such an important milestone—we would highly recommend your services.

I’ve had a great experience working with Gemma Williams at Slee Blackwell during the sale of my property and purchase of another. She was always on the ball, one step ahead, and clearly focused on being as efficient as possible throughout the process. Conveyancing can take time, and I appreciated that things need to be done properly, but Gemma made everything feel smooth and well-managed. I was always kept up to date straight away whenever I needed to complete something or if any further information was required. This is the second time I’ve used Slee Blackwell, and I wouldn’t hesitate to use the firm again in the future. A consistently reliable and professional service.
