Excellent Support and Professional Negotiation

I had a very positive experience working with Sylviane. She was professional, responsive and extremely helpful throughout the process. What really stood out was how effectively she handled the negotiation on my behalf. She understood what I was looking for, gave clear and practical advice, and negotiated firmly while keeping everything professional and straightforward. Sylviane was always easy to communicate with and kept me updated throughout. I felt that my interests were genuinely being looked after, and the whole process was handled efficiently and with care. I would definitely recommend Sylviane to anyone looking for professional and reliable support.

Excellent legal advice and real support

Slater Heelis are an excellent firm, but I am forever grateful to Debbie Coyne and her team for helping me with my legal dispute. Despite having a knotty legal problem in some respects, it could have been straightforward. It wasn't because of our opponent. Happily for me, Debbie was my solicitor. Excellent advice, always quick to reply, incredibly knowledgeable and made sure everything was resolved as expediently as possible. I especially appreciated that Debbie was available from the start and when I needed her advice.

Seamless and Professional

As a growing business we were met with a particularly troublesome legal predicament which overwhelmed us at first. Debbie's reassurance and professionalism told us where we stood and advised us on the best methods to move forward. Throughout the process, updates were frequent and thorough. Even times when Debbie was out of the office, the team at Slater Heelis were able to pick up the baton, ensuring a smooth and uninterrupted process. Would definitely recommend and will certainly use again in future.

Very highly recommended!

Chloe Huggins at Slater Heelis was my family solicitor during the most awful period of my life, and she was brilliant. The situation that I was suddenly and unexpectedly plunged into by my ex was incredibly stressful and difficult, but Chloe was fantastic throughout. She gave great advice, handled everything very professionally, and was always approachable and easy to reach when needed. And thank goodness, because of Chloe's excellent knowledge, advice, and professionalism, we ultimately got the outcome we needed. I very highly recommend Chloe, especially if you are in a difficult family law situation involving the custody of children. Thank you Chloe!
