Emily Spencer

Tagged solicitor Emily Spencer

Emily was great. She explained the will writing process and the Power of Attorney in a clear and easily understandable way. She kept us appraised of progress at each stage and arranged meetings at suitable times. She was very personable and made us feel at ease during the process. Emily outlined how things would progress and everything followed the outline. We were very happy with both her and Winston's and would be happy to use them again or recommend them to friends.

Gill Carr

Tagged solicitor Gill Carr

Gill assisted me in a extremely complex non accidental injury case. I was assisted by Gill, her paralegal Bilal Rasool and her secretary Christine Brown. The service provided by all of them was exceptional. The situation I was going through I can honestly say was the hardest thing I have had to go through in my life and the care, guidance, compassion and support provided by Gill was the sole reason I got through it. The breadth and knowledge Gill has is incredible. She was able to guide and advise me on extremely complex matters, and do so in a manner that was not only clear and concise but was easy for me to understand. She is patient and willing to take the time to explain or go over things if I was not sure. With family matters such as this one, the emotional toll was huge and Gill was acutely aware of this. She understood that when stress was high providing timely information was key and she would always ensure she answered my many questions as soon as she could, and if she was busy Bilal or Christine would always contact me back and either help when they could or let me know when Gill could get back in touch. I often had many questions and concerns that I wanted answers to, or to try and understand and every time Gill would be there to support me and answer them, no matter how small. I felt like Gill is not just a professional I was paying for, but someone who truly cared about me and my case and wanted to do all she could to try and help me get the best outcome. She was tireless in her commitment to me and my case and even though unfortunately we did not have the best outcome I can rest knowing that Gill did everything she could to assist me. Gill truly is not only an incredible solicitor who I would recommend to all but an amazing, kind, compassionate person who I am so grateful to have had by my side.

Jen Law

Tagged solicitor Jen Law

We were very fortunate to have been advised and represented by Jen during a recent case. Undoubtedly without Jen the outcome would have been less positive. We were constantly informed and updated of our situation during the whole process. You could clearly see Jen was respected greatly from the other legal professionals and this provided a great deal of confidence to us as well as a calming influence that is sometimes needed during such delicate discussions and negotiations. We ultimately received the best possible outcome with our case and cannot thank Jen enough. Jen is Tenacious but at the same time a calming influence. We always felt looked after is how i would best describe our experience. Ultimately the most professional service we could have hoped for!

Amy Price

Tagged solicitor Amy Price

I have been a client of Slater Heelis since 2018 and would not consider going anywhere else. I have known Amy since she joined the firm in 2022, and she has been exceptional throughout. She previously assisted me with a child arrangements case, and more recently supported me through all aspects of my divorce proceedings, including mediation, the divorce process, and financial settlement. Amy is an outstanding solicitor. Her professionalism, knowledge, and attention to detail are second to none, but what truly sets her apart is her dedication to her clients. She takes the time to understand the full picture and provides clear, practical advice, even in the most complex and stressful situations. Most recently, Amy supported me through a very difficult and emotionally challenging case. Throughout the process, she remained calm (even when I wasn’t), responsive, and incredibly thorough. She ensured I fully understood each step, managed my expectations with honesty, and always acted in my best interests. Her client care is exceptional : she is approachable, reassuring, and genuinely invested in achieving the best possible outcome. I always felt supported and confident having her represent me. Amy’s work ethic and commitment are truly impressive, and the outcome she helped achieve has had a significant positive impact on my life and my family’s future. I would not hesitate to recommend Amy to anyone seeking a highly skilled, reliable, and compassionate solicitor.
