Although this has been a long process, Slee Blackwell have been extremely thorough ensuring all the relevant information was gathered including medical reports from experts to make sure I received the best possible outcome. They have kept me informed at every stage and payment was extremely swift once the case was concluded.

Just brilliant people. Didn't get the result I was after, but doesn't matter. I've learned some stuff that I feel I didn't need to, but these people know their stuff, and you'll get looked after

We honestly couldn't have asked for a better conveyancer than Kirsty Jones and her team. From start to finish, Kirsty was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and efficient, making what can often be a stressful process feel straightforward and well-managed.
She helped my wife and me purchase our forever home, and we always felt we were in safe hands. Communication was excellent throughout, she was quick to respond to any questions, proactive in keeping everything moving, and her expertise gave us complete confidence every step of the way.
I genuinely can't recommend Kirsty and her team highly enough. If you're buying or selling a property and want someone who is responsive, knowledgeable, and keeps things moving, she's the person to use. Thank you!

I had an excellent experience with Slee Blackwell Solicitors, and I would especially like to thank my solicitor, Carly Sylvester, and the team for their outstanding support throughout my personal injury claim.
From the very beginning through to the successful settlement of my claim, Carly was professional, knowledgeable and always kept me fully informed. She explained every stage of the process clearly, answered my questions patiently, and made sure I understood my options before any important decisions were made.
I was particularly impressed by the care and attention given to my case. Carly took the time to ensure the medical evidence was complete, obtained further expert clarification where necessary, and worked hard to present my claim as accurately and fairly as possible. Throughout the process, I always felt that my best interests were being looked after.
I would also like to thank the team at Slee Blackwell for their professionalism, efficiency and support behind the scenes. Everyone I dealt with was friendly, responsive and helpful.
I am truly grateful to Carly and the entire team for helping me achieve a successful outcome. Thank you all for your professionalism, dedication and support throughout my claim.

Thank you, Emma Slade, for your assistance. Emma went above and beyond, taking the time to dig into complex (for us!) court attendance notes to give us solid, expert advice when we were feeling completely overwhelmed. This is before we have even instructed her.
She cut straight through the legal jargon, identified critical points that had been missed, and offered clarity with incredible empathy and speed. Knowing that someone with her depth of knowledge was willing to take the time to truly help a small business made a huge difference.

We engaged Debbie Fernandez as our solicitor when selling our house. We had a nightmare with buyers pulling out, chain collapsing etc. It took 17 months to sell, but throughout this journey Debbie was outstanding. She chased as required, and kept us updated. All the paperwork, searches etc. were dealt with promptly. Debbie or one of her colleagues was always available to answer any queries or offer advice as required. We would definitely use Debbie and the team at Slee Blackwell again and would recommend to future clients.

Kirsty and Lauren did an excellent job handling the sale of my 50% shared ownership flat. They responded to every email and query promptly, and their communication was always clear, reassuring, and professional.
They kept the process moving efficiently and completed everything within a very reasonable timeframe. Their excellent service made what could have been a stressful experience feel completely straightforward and stress-free.
I really appreciated all of their hard work and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and professional solicitors. Thank you both!

Jasmine and Isabel were amazing. Had a nasty incident with a dog attack. They kept me up to date all the time. They were patient understanding and always helpful. I got the outcome I wanted which was all down to them. I cannot thank them enough for all they did. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

I wanted to extend my sincere thanks to Kirsty and her team for handling the sale of my mother’s house. Their approach was consistently thorough, professional, and reassuring throughout. Every stage of the process was managed with impressive efficiency, making the entire experience smooth and completely stress‑free.
The communication was clear, timely, and proactive, and I always felt confident that everything was being taken care of with care and precision. The whole process was slick from start to finish, and I’m genuinely impressed by the level of service provided.
Thank you again for your hard work and dedication — it made a world of difference.

They took long time to reply, claiming they had an emergency, absolutely wasted my time, I am beyond disgusted how they have treated me on top of what I had already suffered.

My Solicitor at Slee Blackwell is Clarissa Ellerington.
Four years ago I became a client with Clarissa due to medical negligence.
During the last four years Clarissa’s outstanding work and support with my claim has been truly amazing.
I have been supported and guided with the upmost care every step of the way.
Clarissa’s expertise and knowledge regarding my case and many other similar cases, has made a very difficult journey much easier.
Clarissa has always shown empathy, support and care for me, as well as being extremely honest throughout each stage of my claim.
Clarissa has always kept me fully updated every step of the way with my claim. This has made a huge difference for me, because making a claim is a very hard, long stressful journey and having Clarissa’s high standard of communication has been so helpful.
Any questions that I have had, however big or small, has been answered quickly and honestly.
During the past four years I have built a lovely relationship with Clarissa.
This is because she an approachable, kind caring lady.
I highly recommend Clarissa Ellerington.

I cannot thank my Solicitor enough for such exemplary service with a high degree of professionalism. She explained the details of the Will procedures in a clear and concise manner which was easy to understand. I would rate this company as first class and will certainly use them for any future needs.

We were very impressed with the efficiency and speed of completion of the house sale by Samantha Millington and Rosie Francis at Slee Blackwell in Bideford.Great communication at all times .

I can’t thank Jen enough for her help. She is incredibly hardworking and professional, but also just really easy to talk to. She kept me updated the whole time and made a stressful situation so much easier to handle. Best of all, she got my case completely dismissed! If you need a top-notch solicitor who actually cares and gets results, definitely go with Jen."

I had a very good impression of Caroline Webber-Brown from the first time that I spoke to her. We discussed a potential claim for Medical Negligence. She was is a combination of professional, empathic, responsive and knowledgeable. She listened carefully and quickly identified the relevant areas. Throughout the process, Caroline was easily contactable and responded quickly. She was backed up in this by her excellent team who demonstrated the same characteristics.
There was a time when I wavered in my decision to proceed. Caroline listened to my concerns, and took them seriously. She gave another perspective, but left the decision entirely to me.
She was also an excellent bridge between me and Counsel (also very helpful and professional) on the day of the hearing which made the process during the hearing significantly easier.
Throughout the process, clear written and verbal communication was provided by Caroline of costs and likely recompense. This was important, since this was my first time in such proceedings, and that aspect of the process could easily have been overwhelming.
I have absolutely no hesitation in unreservedly recommending Caroline and Slee Blackwell; it is accurate to say that they were everything that I needed them to be. Thank you Caroline.
