It was a pleasure to work with Joanne at Slater Heelis from initial contact through to the end of the legal process. Joanne provided clear information and advice, always responded promptly to our queries and kept us up to date throughout.

From my initial telephone chat I was impressed with Joanne's empathy and professionalism. Making a will was an emotional journey for me, but her caring attitude made it that bit easier. She explained everything step by step and made sure I understood the process. I have no hesitation in recommending Joanne O'Donnell at Slater Heelis, as the whole experience decidedly exceeded my expectations.

Joanne has patiently and extremely knowledgeably navigated me through the important task of writing my Will. Throughout the entire process Joanne has been incredibly supportive and I now have peace of mind that my Will will do everything I need it to for my loved ones. Highly recommended! Thank you, Joanne.

Thank you for your 5-star review, Sarah. Your feedback is much appreciated.
I have instructed Slaterheelis on three separate occasions and I have dealt with Ashleigh on all three, dealing with two Wills and Probate. Ashleigh has been professional, friendly and extremely helpful on all occasions and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.

Sold our late brother’s house through them, they sorted probate (intestate) and sale/conveyancing. Quality work, recommended, special thanks to Charlotte Otton & Ian Donnison.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We appreciate your positive feedback and will make sure it is passed back to the team!
I had a family will at this solicitors and when it came to executing their quote was well above 250% of a much larger fixed fee firm. The staff is unresponsive, first email request ignored for days, second email i get the out of office reply but nobody receives her emails. I phone up for a different person, they dont know what to do and promise to call back but does not. I made it clear it was urgent and this seems to mean nothing to these people. Unprofessional, unresponsive and expensive.

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.

Dear Andy, Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased to hear that our team provided outstanding and prompt support in reviewing your contract.
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!
