Knowledgable and friendly

Gemma was recommended to myself when I found myself in a very unknown and alien situation. She provided me with help, advice and guidance for my case in relation to children’s matters. She was very friendly and put me at ease when I was struggling with all the troubles I was facing. She was extremely knowledgable in her field and kept me informed of progression in the case & what to expect going forward. I would recommend Gemma to anyone needing help or guidance in relation to family law.

Exceptional service from Naomi Redman

I’m can’t recommend Naomi Redman enough. I experienced such professional and attentive service from SleeBlackWell. Naomi Redman and her colleague Charlie Jones were excellent throughout the sale process. Absolute 5 star all the way, If I could rate higher I would. Naomi was approachable, contactable and super helpful. Fabulous conveyancing team. This is the solicitor to use. Chris Hinchliffe.

This is now the third time we’ve used Slee Blackwell for moving and they have always been fantastic. Always there to pick up a call at no extra cost and with their online portal it makes all the form filling an easy job. I highly recommend this company and the wonderful team in Bideford who work so hard to make forward steps with their clients at heart.

Naomi Redman from the Tiverton office has just completed on my house sale. I can’t recommend her enough. Professional, attentive and friendly service from start o finish.

Having recently got divorced my experience of solicitors was strained. What a different experience from SleeBlackkwell and Naomi Redman! Charlie Jones was also fabulous, they kept me updated every step of the way.

I’m so glad I chose SleeBlackWell Tiverton to represent me during the sale process. This is the solicitors to use for conveyancing. Chris.

Naomi and Charlie have been extremely professional throughout and once again have provided an outstanding service. Having delt with the sector for over 40 years, the service provided by these two have been far superior to any before. They have dealt with several of sales of my properties over the years and each time have excelled. Thank you again an i look forward to working together in the near future.

I can’t thank Caroline and the team at Slee Blackwell enough. They could have easily turned me away, but they didn’t, instead they worked ferociously for five years on my case, booking appointments for me in London gathering expert opinions, having face to face and online meetings with me, keeping me up to date, and also explaining things clearly whenever I didn’t understand (which was often!). Just an incredible team. However, beyond this, I felt like they genuinely cared, which meant a lot more to me, as a legal journey inevitably brings up a lot, and they’re a very empathetic team. Thank you to Caroline and the team at Slee, it’s been one hell of a journey, and I appreciate all your effort to get me through it. I’d recommend you any day of the week.

Excellent service, as soon as i instructed Slee Blackwell as my solicitors I felt I was in safe hands. It was such a relief for me at a difficult time. They sorted everything out with excellent knowledge and attention to detail. Communication was superb - reassuring yet professional, prompt and easy to understand. They gave balanced advice and I felt they acted in my interest at all times. They helped me get a satisfactory conclusion and I can now move on with my life. Thank you

About this branch

Description

Slee Blackwell Solicitors are an award winning, Legal 500 recommended practice serving clients nationwide. 2020 was our centenary year. We have come a long way in the past one hundred plus years, but we remain committed to the principles of our founder Ernest Slee to provide the highest levels of professional service. We are proud to have been awarded Lexcel accreditation, the Law Society’s legal practice quality mark for excellence in legal practice management and legal client care. Our clients therefore have the peace of mind of knowing that their legal affairs are in safe hands and that their interests are being looked after by an established, accredited law firm that is dedicated to providing a first class service. While we provide a full range of legal services, we are known nationally for our expertise in a number of niche areas of law, including inheritance disputes, medical negligence and animal law. Our work has attracted a great deal of media attention. Medical negligence Lawyer, Oliver Thorne, has for instance been celebrated for spearheading the fight for justice of hundreds of British PIP breast implant victims in the French courts, as well as campaigning for the rights of mothers and babies who have been let down by our health services. Partner James McNally (awarded DASLS Solicitor of the Year 2024) has been dubbed 'The Dog Bite Solicitor' by The Guardian newspaper.
