Working with Slee Blackwells for probate and the sale of our father’s house was swift, professional and supportive. Very quick turn arounds and friendly at all times.

Patience of a saint!!

Sam Millington and Rosie Martin acted on behalf of myself for the sale of my property. I couldn’t be happier with the service that was provided to me, our buyers solicitors were extremely frustrating and elongated the process by a good number of weeks, but they handled my persistent calls and emails with such professionalism.

Excellent service

The sale should have been fairly straightforward but unfortunately it wasn't - both Sam and especially Rosie were endlessly patient and helpful and always willing to provide me with information and updates.
Very impressed with their service

Our estate agents sent us a couple of solicitors who they recommended to do the conveyancing on the purchase of our new home. So glad we chose Slee Blackwell. They have been excellent all the way through, kept us in the loop at all times and were professional without being stuffy! They knew we were on a short timeline and managed to get everything completed within our timescales. Highly recommend them.

House sale

My sister and I instructed Samantha Millington to deal with the sale of our mother’s house. She has kept us up the date every step of the way until final completion this week. We couldn’t have asked for better service and would recommend SleeBlackwell as first class.

Review of Slee Blackwell Solicitors

I have used Slee Blackwell solicitors several times now and consider them to be a very good firm. This time I have dealt with Samantha Millington and her secretary Rosie Martin. They have been really helpful in the whole process of my house sale and purchase of my new home. They have been very prompt with dealing with all the issues that a rose and kept me well informed. Extremely professional but also very approachable and friendly. I could not fault the service they have provided me. I would certainly use their services again.

Conveyancing Transaction

5

Samantha Millington has again provided a very good service for a conveyancing transaction which was not straightforward due to my mum passing away before we exchanged Contracts which meant I had to obtain a Grant of Probate for the sale to proceed. Samantha, as always, provided an excellent service along with the help of her Secretary, Rosie. I would not hesitate to recommend Samantha to family and friends and will use her services again in the future.

Samantha Millington handled the purchase of our present home during the time when there was a great deal of activity due to the temporary cancellation of stamp duty creating a great deal of work for solicitors to beat the completion cut off date. There was also a holdup lower in the chain near our completion date but she finished the job in good time. She later provided proof of our ownership of the solar panels on the roof for the transfer of the Feed In Tariff contract. Two way communication was good throughout.
