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.

Empathy and expertise.

After an injury at work, I was confused and unsure of where to go for help.Contacting Slee Blackwell and in particular Jasmine Moxey-Butler was the best decision I could have made. She handled my case with immense professionalism, empathy, and expertise, securing a great outcome for me. Jasmine took the time to explain everything clearly and always made me feel heard and supported throughout a difficult time. My wife and I are so grateful for Jasmine's hard work and dedication. Thank you!

Wonderful support from beginning to end

After being trampled by cows I used Jasmine at Slee Blackwell for compensation from the cows owners. From the first email and phone conversation Jasmine and her team were wonderful. Open, transparent, honest, friendly and supportive from the outset. They went above and beyond for me and I ended up reaching a satisfactory conclusion thanks to them. I wholeheartedly recommend Jasmine to anyone who has the need for a personal injury solicitor and they should have no doubt whatsoever that Jasmine will do absolutely everything possible for the best possible outcome for you. She helped me through a deeply emotional experience.

Exceptional Support and Dedication in Securing Justice for My Mum

I cannot thank Sleeblackwell Solicitors, and in particular James McNally and his team, enough for the exceptional support, dedication and professionalism they have shown to my mum and our family over the past six years. In 2020, my mum was attacked by a resident’s dog and suffered devastating injuries. The attack occurred as a result of the owner’s negligence in failing to properly secure the dog on his premises. Sadly, after two other law firms declined to take on the case, largely because the defendant claimed not to have pet or home insurance, we were left feeling that my mum might never receive justice. That was when I contacted Sleeblackwell Solicitors and spoke with James McNally. From our very first conversation, James listened attentively to everything I had to say. He was completely honest about how difficult the case would be, particularly given the defendant’s claimed lack of financial means to pay compensation, but despite the challenges, he was willing to take the case on and fight for my mum. What followed was six years of litigation, persistence and determination. Yesterday, we finally reached the outcome we had been hoping and fighting for, and my mum was awarded compensation for the injuries and suffering she endured. Throughout those six years, James and his entire team were nothing short of exceptional. I live in the UAE, James and his firm are based in the South of England, and my mum lives in the North of England, so managing the case involved countless emails, Zoom calls and long-distance telephone conversations. I was advocating for my mum throughout the entire process, and James and his team were incredibly supportive, patient and understanding every step of the way. They took the time to listen to every detail and every piece of information I provided, even over such a long and challenging period. We never felt that our case was simply another file on a desk. Their commitment, compassion and determination gave us the confidence to keep going, even when the process felt overwhelming. James, and everyone at Sleeblackwell Solicitors, played an enormous part in helping our family finally achieve justice for my mum. We will always be incredibly grateful for everything they have done. Thank you, from myself, my mum and our entire family. We wholeheartedly appreciate your dedication and everything you have done for us over the past six years.

I can’t thank Jasmine, Isabel and the whole Slee Blackwell team enough. I contacted them for help following a very traumatic dog attack. The service that I received was so much more than I ever could have asked for. They were incredibly compassionate and friendly and understood that my scars weren’t just physical but also emotional, and supported me throughout the whole process. Communication was 10/10 as they made sure I was up to date with every decision and development. I can’t recommend them enough!! Thank you!!

Elizabeth Duncan is an amazing solicitor, I can be very difficult when I feel something injustice has happened and she has remained helpful and professional every step of the way. She won my legal case against the NHS and went out of her way to communicate every aspect of the case with me as well as getting me the best outcome possible. Couldn’t recommend her enough!

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.
