Over the finishing line

It was a slow start due to some incorrect date from the 3rd party, but then moved on a pace. I was impressed with the referrals sent. The psychologist was excellent. However the Orth consultant not to my expected standards bearing in mind i work in a hospital environment especially around Patient Experience. I think a fair deal was struck and appreciate the communications at every stage. Simon is level headed and even handed so felt i could trust his judgements.

Clinical Negligence

Excellent support, advice and service

I was introduced to Alex through a personal contact and was pleased to work with him- the recommendation was well deserved and I can now endorse that from my own experience. Through Alex I also had to engage his colleague Nasreen Aslam who was equally efficient, proactive, professional and extremely supportive of my case. Both are highly recommended and I wouldn't hesitate in using their service and indeed the services of Slater Heelis again

Hannah Costley Was Incredible – Excellent Service from Slater Heelis

I cannot thank Hannah Costley and the team at Slater Heelis enough for their outstanding support, professionalism, and dedication throughout a very challenging time in my life. From the very first consultation, Hannah was reassuring, knowledgeable, and completely committed to ensuring my voice was heard and my rights were protected. She handled my case with great care and attention to detail, always keeping me informed and confident every step of the way. Her calm and strategic approach gave me peace of mind during an incredibly stressful period. I am deeply grateful for the expertise and integrity shown by Hannah and everyone at Slater Heelis. They truly went above and beyond. I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of reliable and compassionate legal representation.

Family Law

First Class Recommendation.Professional and Caring.

I can't say enough good things about Amy. From the moment of contact, Amy was incredibly responsive and accommodating. She has always clearly explained the process and walked me through my options, being honest and truthful with her guidance. Amy's patience, kindness and understanding are second to none,. Although she must take on many cases like mine, you are cared and supported on your own individual case. The quality of her work is outstanding, and what was a stressful process was made so much easier. Amy delivered a successful outcome for myself with a financial consent order. Thank you Amy!

Outstanding Service, would recommend

I had an excellent experience working with Alishan Khan during my property purchase. From start to finish, he was professional, efficient, and incredibly reliable. The entire process was handled smoothly and with great attention to detail, making what can often be a stressful experience feel straightforward and manageable. Alishan was always available to answer my questions and provide advice whenever needed. He took the time to explain everything clearly, simplifying complex legal matters and ensuring I fully understood each stage of the transaction. His communication was prompt, and I always felt informed and supported throughout the process. Thanks to his expertise and dedication, my property purchase was completed efficiently and with ease. I would highly recommend Alishan Khan to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, responsive, and trustworthy solicitor.

Daniel was excellent for a service relating to a notice to terminate which we had contacted him for. We contacted him on short notice and requested this to be sorted fast, which once we had explained to Daniel the situation he was very helpful in. He provided the conclusion ahead of the required date, breaking our options down, and giving us competent advice. Would recommend highly to anyone else looking for help in this sort of matter. Thanks Daniel!
