Excellent.

I engaged Slater Heelis to support the purchase of my first property - I couldn’t be more satisfied with the service provided to me by Helen Young and the team. Helen guided me through the various aspects of buying and always made time for my questions. Her expertise was apparent throughout the process, and she worked promptly with autonomy. I would recommend Slater Heelis, especially Helen, very highly.

Daniel Stern 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!

from Slater Heelis

Dear Jason, Thank you for your review and recommendation. We are delighted to hear that Daniel provided prompt, clear, and effective support. It is pleasing to know that his advice and guidance helped you reach a timely and well-informed outcome.

Our conveyancing process ran through the Christmas period, yet everything was handled efficiently and professionally. Miriam and Daniel were excellent throughout, coordinating clearly with the estate agency and the seller’s solicitor. They were responsive whenever we had questions and kept us well informed at each stage. Thanks to their diligence and clear communication, the process progressed smoothly and we completed around 2 months since my offer is accepted. Highly recommend Miriam and Daniel and their conveyancing team.

I had an excellent experience with Chloe Huggins during a difficult family law matter. She was highly professional, knowledgeable, and empathetic, making me feel completely understood. Her communication was outstanding with clear explanations of the process. I also really appreciated that she was completely upfront with costs from the start. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
