Conveyancing Dream Team!

Recommended by our property agent, Kirsty Jones and her team totally stand up to the amazing reputation they have. Completed in under 6 weeks from the date we accepted the buyer’s offer tells you everything! The most amazing amount of hard work is clearly going on between emails and phone calls to ensure this otherwise stressful process went smoothly for us - and suddenly - we were there! Any detail was handled with efficiency and kindness by Kirsty and her secretaries and also the amazing front of business receptionist at the Barnstaple Office.
A personal phone call from Kirsty on Exchange of Contacts was the most joyous news and positive turning point when we could all finally let go and heave that sigh of relief ! Absolutely Brilliant - THANK YOU: Conveyancing Dream Team 🤩

Fast and Efficient Conveyancing - Offer to Completion in 2 months

Yet another great SB experience with Emma Napper and her team. Emma acted for us on the sale of an apartment in London with a particularly complex freehold, lease and residents association structure. The team from SB were calm, smooth and efficient keeping us informed of developments and issues as they arose, resulting in an offer to completion timeframe for the sale of the flat of 2 months. Very pleased and will definitely continue using them for all of our conveyancing needs in the UK.

Excellent Service

Nicole from Barnstaple was extremely helpful and patient whilst we dealt with endless queries from our building society. She put everything in place for a speedy exchange and completion ensuring that we completed before the Stamp Duty change. Costs were very reasonable and competitive. Very happy with our experience of Slee Blackwell and would have no hesitation in recommending them and using their service again.

Excellent solicitors

Zoe Nicholson dealt with our wills and she was absolutely fantastic! It was a really daunting task for us but Zoe made it all so easy and was extremely helpful. I can honestly say that I wouldn't hesitate in recommending to friends and family and if ever needed in the future, Slee Blackwell would be my first choice for Solicitors!

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

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.

We are Buckinghamshire based and our experience so far with Jade and Clarissa has been fantastic. The team are very friendly and caring and very willing to help you in any way they can. A few solicitors had turned our case down but Jade went that one step further for us and recognised we had a case for medical negligence. We cant thank them enough for helping us with our claim and providing the support.

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.
