Highly Supportive and Knowledgeable Solicitor

I had a very positive experience working with this Sylviane on my Settlement Agreement. She was knowledgeable, patient, and supportive from start to finish. Her guidance was clear and I felt fully informed at every stage. I truly appreciate her help and would happily recommend her to anyone needing employment law advice.

Exceptional and Inclusive Employment Law Support

While my case is ongoing, from the very start, Slater Heelis and Sylviane have been exceptional. When no one else was willing to take on my employment law matter, Sylviane and the team at Slater Heelis stepped in with unwavering support, expertise, and inclusivity. Sylviane has been amazing throughout the entire process, and I feel fortune to have her support. She guided me with clarity, continuously accommodated my circumstances, and always provided grounded, actionable advice that helped me move forward with confidence. Thanks to her, I now feel in a strong, empowered position, something I did not feel at the beginning. As a domestic abuse survivor who is neurodivergent, disabled, and from the LGBTQIA+ community, the incredible quality of service and affirming experience has been invaluable. Working with Sylviane has been brilliant, the expertise, empathy, and dedication are a joy to work with. In today’s often hostile climate, knowing there’s an inclusive, reliable option like Slater Heelis and Sylviane for employment law gives me reassurance for the community, that we won’t be ignored, and that there are options for support so we can seek justice and continue to live our lives with pride. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sylviane and Slater Heelis to my peers or anyone seeking compassionate, high-quality legal support, especially those who need an ally in employment disputes. Whatever happens with my case, thank you for being the support I desperately needed.

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!

Kind and professional

I met Claire to discuss an IVF agreement as a known male donor for a same-sex female couple. She was thorough, professional, and also very kind and personable. I felt very well informed afterwards and remember it not just as an important conversation for me, but a warm and friendly one too.
