Slater Heelis LLP

Rebecca and Mark were with me at every step. Rebecca was very approachable and the advice was very sensible and straightforward- good outcomes- a happy client...:)

I had a wonderful solicitor called Rebecca who was so nice and warm that it made a traumatic situation much better. I am glad I used Slater heelis as the service was fantastic.

From the very first meeting to the last communication, I found Rebecca Muirhead to be reassuring, honest, knowledgeable and professional. I felt as though I was in safe hands. Sometimes I was given an opinion which was not what I was hoping to hear, but I very much valued the honest opinion. I’m not quick to trust, and can be a harsh judge - Rebecca was fab.

The only area I think could be improved is the charging system. It wasn’t clear to me how the charges were calculated. I’m a maths teacher with a law degree, so if it’s not clear to me I’m pretty sure it’s not clear enough for most. The costs were within the original forecast price.

I couldn't recommend Mark Heptinstall od Slater Heelis highly enough. He put me at my ease, outlined clearly what my options were and their associated costs, and provided frank and pragmatic advice. Once I'd decided my course of action he was thorough, professional and acted as quickly as our legal system permits. Feedback was always clear and precise. I felt I had a top barrister as my best friend watching my back. Thank you Mark.

I was disappointed with the level of service and guidance provided. The ‘fixed-fee’ service that was agreed at the outset turned out not to be the case, and several significant third party costs were not mentioned at any point in the lengthy time period to completion so when the final invoice was received it was almost double the initial expected cost. My complaint was met with the offer of a £135 reduction of fees on a total bill of over £7,000.

I have had the benefit of Slater Heelis professional and personable family law team on a number of occasions for myself and other people I know. The results invariably have been to find solutions to what can often be very delicate or emotive issues in a calm and always satisfactory way!

Can’t recommend them enough. Mark Heptinstall is exceptional and heads an excellent team.

Also consistent in performance using wills and probate, Conveyancing and employment lawyers.

I will continue to use Slater Heelis for all legal matters.

We have used Simon Wallwork and Rhian Owen as corporate advisors for many years. The advice has always been excellent, professional, timely and good value.
More recently we have used Hannah Al-Shaghana in the property department and like SImon and Rhian, her advice was excellent and they are all a pleasure to deal with.
