Making a rough transaction smooth!
I work as an estate agent and normally refer to another conveyancer but chose to work with Helen on a personal sale of mine.
The property wasn’t digitally registered so the initial meeting with Helen was a great help making sure we selected the right buyer and were up front with any restrictions in the title in advance. Most firms wouldn’t even open a file until a buyer was found.
Helen performed above expected standards throughout the transaction, particularly on the customer service front but the thing that stood out was no matter how many barriers the other side put up Helen didn’t give up and kept pushing.
The total transaction took around 20 weeks which was frustrating but there is no doubt in my mind that it would have been closer to 25/30 weeks without Helen and team. In my mind she saved me a huge amount of money in insurances, council tax and other payments by her proactive approach and never say die attitude!
If you’re choosing a conveyancer I can’t emphasise how important it is to choose someone who isn’t scared to pick the phone up, be proactive and is tenacious. If you make the wrong choice it’ll be too late once you realise! I would say you can’t go wrong with Helen and team.

Multiple concurrent property transactions
Helen acted for us during the sale of our home, purchase of a new build property and also the purchase of a leasehold apartment. She was meticulous in all areas, and worked hard to resolve several issues that she identified. Always approachable, queries were answered promptly and regularly converted into layman's terms to assist understanding. We would definitely use her again.

Very professional and great communication
I would highly recommend Helen, she was amazing from start to finish. Great communication and kept me informed throughout the process of my house sale. Helen’s professionalism and expertise were great as she was able to help with matters and explain them to me clearly as this was my first time buying a home. She put me at ease during the process and always kept me informed and advised me throughout. The sale was completed in a timely manner and any queries I had she answered efficiently, always in a timely manner and with great legal knowledge. It was a pleasure working with Helen and would highly recommend to anyone purchasing a property.

Recent home purchase
I have recently purchased a home using Helen Taylor as my solicitor and she has been exceptional. She is extremely efficient in dealing with all matters and despite having some changes to timelines/ plans from the other party Helen was able to deal with everything extremely quickly and informed me at all times what was happening and if anything was needed from me. I won’t hesitate to choose her as my solicitor again when I move and will be recommending her to friends and family. The buyer from my sale has also asked for her contact information as she was so clearly much better at her job then the solicitor they had retained.

Transfer of title deeds from mother to daughter.
I was introduced to Slaterheelis Solicitors, the firm, and Helen Taylor took on my case. From the moment she took my instructions, Helen was efficient, timely, and on the ball. The transactions went on without a hitch or delay, and I was kept informed all the time about the progress.
I am satisfied and impressed by Helen’s work and friendly approach.
