Daniel is extremely effective in quickly identifying the key points to be addressed and providing clear direction and advice having done so.

Comprehensive and Professional

We have previously used Slater Heelis for a property transaction and found their service to be excellent so they were the natural choice when it was time to get our wills in good shape. Paul was thorough, professional and considerate in addressing the various complications and scenarios that you have to work through to get a solid will in place. He was prompt and consistent with the timelines he set. Great service all round and I'd have no hesitation in recommending him to others.

Excellent service received!!

Ali supported me and one of our service users to complete a deed poll application. Throughout the time spent completing this Ali was very kind and approachable, patient, and he was very efficient in ensuring this was finalized in a timely manor. I would recommend Ali, and use his service again in the future as he was very friendly and made the process stress-free from start to finish. Thankyou again for all your help :) Melanie Glassbrook

Outstanding service - Paul Baker

From the very first time I spoke to Paul, when arranging to draw up my will, he showed nothing but professionalism, courtesy and respect, whilst at the same time, being very approachable, knowledgeable, easy to talk to and made me feel at ease, and that continued throughout my dealings with him. I found him to be a very affable, genuine man, who took time to explain the whole process very clearly to me. I would highly recommend Paul and indeed Slater Heelis in general.

Family Law

Family proceedings

I honestly can't thank my family solicitor enough for everything she did for me. Going through a family matter was one of the most difficult times in my life, but from the very beginning she made me feel listened to, supported, and reassured. She always took the time to explain things in a way I could understand, kept me updated throughout, and she was always there when I needed advice or reassurance. Her communication was always very quick. What stood out the most was her genuine compassion and understanding. I never felt like just another clien. She truly cared about me and my family and worked tirelessly to achieve the best possible outcome. Her professionalism, kindness, and dedication made an incredibly stressful situation so much easier to cope with. I will always be grateful for everything she did for me and would recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, knowledgeable, and trustworthy family solicitor. I had the best outcome for my family. Thank you so much for your support it means more to me than words can say.

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!
