Totally dedicated team and supportive throughout

I couldn’t have asked for such a nicer company to help me deal with my legal matter. Extremely supportive throughout the whole process, and helped guide me every step of the way. Would highly recommend using this company. Everything was explained in full throughout. Feel very reassured and happy with my experience

Claim settlement

Emma Slade is a wonderful,professional,understanding,knowledgeable solicitor with a very human side to her work. I would thoroughly recommend her and following a successful outcome after a long and arduous claim she did not falter once. We were able to put our complete trust in her and whilst I hope I will not need future help in such matters should we ever need to I would without doubt ask for Emma to act on our behalf. I really cannot impress enough how comfortable we were to be led by Emma throughout the whole prolonged case.

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.

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.

I can’t thank Caroline and the team at Slee Blackwell enough. They could have easily turned me away, but they didn’t, instead they worked ferociously for five years on my case, booking appointments for me in London gathering expert opinions, having face to face and online meetings with me, keeping me up to date, and also explaining things clearly whenever I didn’t understand (which was often!). Just an incredible team. However, beyond this, I felt like they genuinely cared, which meant a lot more to me, as a legal journey inevitably brings up a lot, and they’re a very empathetic team. Thank you to Caroline and the team at Slee, it’s been one hell of a journey, and I appreciate all your effort to get me through it. I’d recommend you any day of the week.

Absolute Life Saver - Highly Recommend

After a very unpleasant and disturbing breakdown in my relationship it looked like I was going to lose my home, a home that I had paid the whole deposit for and had paid the mortgage on my own for over 6 months. My ex partner would not sign the house over to me, even though there was no equity in it and he paid nothing toward the deposit, my mortgage deal was coming to an end, I was never going to be able to afford the new payments. Kirsty stepped in and literally saved the day, she contacted my ex and due to her professionalism and persistence he finally signed the papers. I can never thank her and her team enough, I can now enjoy my home with my baby girl without having to worry about losing it, I will be eternally grateful and cannot recommend Kirsty enough. If I could give 10 stars I would, I am so happy!!

Great service and guidance through a tricky completion

Slee Blackwell dealt with my conveyancing for both sale and purchase, we had some tricky hurdles to overcome but Slee Blackwell and in particular Joanna Smith guided us through the process with patience and professionalism through out.

Kirsty Jones at Slee Blackwell Solicitors (Barnstaple) for conveyancing.

Absolutely brilliant service – went above and beyond to save our chain! We wanted to leave this review to say a huge thank you to Kirsty Jones, her assistant Lauren,Sue and everyone at the firm for the incredible help and support they gave us during our recent house sale and purchase. From day one, Kirsty was professional, knowledgeable, and always quick to respond to any questions we had. Lauren and Sue were also fantastic – keeping us regularly updated and making sure nothing slipped through the net. We used Kirsty Jones and her team for both our house sale and the purchase of the property we moved into. Most notably, the week before the agreed date to exchange contracts, the buyers solicitor, also used Slee Blackwell but the Braunton branch ,went on holiday. This directly threatened our agreed exchange date and would have caused everything to stall, putting our whole chain at risk. However, true to form, Kirsty stepped straight in – sending a colleague to the Braunton branch to take over the workload and keep everything moving forward. In short: 0/10 for their solicitor, but a solid 10/10 for Kirsty! Add to this, Kirsty and her team completely made up for the slow, unhelpful involvement we had from our estate agent. The agent let things drag, didn’t communicate and brought nothing but problems and unresolved issues to us, while Kirsty was proactive, reliable, and determined to get the job done. We cannot recommend Kirsty Jones, Lauren and Sue highly enough. If you want conveyancing handled properly, with people who will go the extra mile when it matters most, look no further. Thank you again!

Clear, calm advice

Kristi helped me to navigate a quite unpleasant experience with a Will and its subsequent probate. She was clear and extremely knowledgeable, and able to see what my situation was very quickly. I was able to pursue a positive outcome as a direct result of contacting her.

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.
