TUPE & Contract advice

Ran into an issue with a client who we believed terminated a contract incorrectly and avoided TUPE responsibilities. SH guided me through the legal stance allowing me to make an informed decision on my next move.

Housing & Property

Sale of a property and the transfer of of a second property to a Trust

It proved rather complicated for the transfer as it involved a different firm to execute the conveyancing who were also good. Overall, when dealing with three different groups of lawyers, I occasionally got rather muddled, but generally the whole process worked quite smoothly.

Initially Slater Heelis were very good in dealing with the conveyancing, the problems came with the completion. It didn't occur on the day it was supposed to, and I got the feeling the solicitors were moving heaven and earth to make it happen. The money went missing, and eventually turned up on the Monday after. Luckily we were not moving house so it meant we weren't stuck in limbo between houses. The real grievance came afterwards, we were owed money in lost interest. After 2-3 weeks of ringing, and being told the money transfer would be made, we lost patience and threatened them with the ombudsman. The money arrived 2 hours later. Maybe they were having a bad day, but I certainly won't be using them again.

A representative from Slater Heelis responded to this review

We are really sorry to hear you are unsatisfied with our service and take feedback seriously. We will investigate the matter and where appropriate make changes.

I have used Slater Heelis for in excess of a decade. Will Henson heads up the commercial property team and has proved to be key to the expansion of my company’s assets. Daniel Stern works as a property litigator within the dispute resolution team, astute and incredibly thorough ..... men you want or your side.

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!
