Having contacted Slater Heelis, Ali got back to me and having explained everything that I wanted I was invited in to the office. There were amendments to be made, but these were done straight away.

A simple procedure which was completed to my entire satisfaction.

Excellent solicitor

This review is for a different branch.

I recently had Chloe from Slater Helis help me with an urgent family matter. She was sympathetic, very proactive and helped me get a fair result for me and my family during a very difficult time. I would recommend her in a heartbeat and will be forever grateful for the advice and help she gave me to ensure that things ended positive for us all. Without Chloe I am sure things would not have been resolved in the manner that they were.

A big thanks

This review is for a different branch.

I was referred to Vicki and her team during a long and exhausting divorce process. Despite having already invested a lot of time and money, I felt stuck in an endless cycle with little progress. From the start, Vicki was patient, meticulous, and truly supportive—she guided me all the way to the finish line. I felt an immediate sense of trust in her; she understood exactly where I was coming from and where I wanted to go, and she helped me get there. I’ll always be grateful for her support.

Client Review Slater Heelis

This review is for a different branch.

Two years ago I used the services of Slater Heelis to arrange a Capacity Assessment for my sister and just recently a Deed of Variation for her will. Prior to that I had used the services of Towns Neesham, a firm who later joined with SLater Heelis, where they had dealt with the purchase of father's house, the subsequent transfer of ownership to my sister, prepared my sisters will and later dealt with the sale of her house.

I have every confidence in the excellent services and guidance given by the Slater Heelis solicitors and I would use the firm again.

Amazing conveyancing work

This review is for a different branch.

I would highly recommend Slater Heelis in Sale, Manchester, for conveyancing work. It's refreshing to come across such hard working and diligent people. And all this at a time when the profession was dealing with so many clients all desperate to complete before the end March deadline ahead of stamp duty changes.

I am not too experienced with domestic conveyancing. Are any of us? So when we accepted an offer for our home, it was time to find a great lawyer. And we did! Zara Banday metaphorically ‘took our hands’ and guided us from start to finish with skill, care, consideration and most importantly with our best interests in mind at all times. I know that Zara will have been dealing with many clients simultaneously but she never failed to reply to an email, return a call or respond to our buyer’s solicitor, all in a timely fashion.

She is also rather adept at offering help to her counterpart from the buyers legal team when they rely on an inexperienced solicitor who doesn’t appear to know what to do. .

I don’t often recommend because it can get you into trouble. But on this occasion I can unhesitatingly advise anyone who is reading this, to contact Zara Banday at Slater Heelis. Selling your house is likely to be the biggest transaction of your life. I urge you to get Zara on your team before your buyer nips in ahead of you!!

I would like to express my gratitude to solicitor Amy Price for the professional advice and guidance she provided during my divorce case. She was incredibly efficient, compassionate, and always responded with remarkable speed. Before I met Amy, I had dealt with other solicitors from different firms who were not as helpful, and I ended up wasting quite a bit of money. That experience made me realize how fortunate I was to find Amy and how efficient she is. Now that my case has finally come to a conclusion, I especially want to thank her for the hard work and dedication she put into it.
