Defending a claim made against Estate

“After receiving a claim against my late fathers estate, I was left feeling extremely anxious and frustrated. Chris was amazing, his knowledge and professionalism was impeccable. I immediately felt in safe hands and I received a prompt response to any queries I had. Sharnie was also amazing throughout the experience. I was so impressed with the service that I used Slee Blackwell for an eviction and conveyancing. I received outstanding service again. Thank you so much for relieving my stress, that is truly priceless!”

Inheritance claim

“Jack has been amazing. Me and my two siblings lost our grandfather who left his estate to our mother, sadly 6 months after he passed our mother the passed away and the estate was then passed down to me, my brother and sister. A claim from a cousin was put forward well out of time and wasn’t really a valid claim but Jack helped us trough this and we finally made a nuisance settlement avoiding court proceedings and unnecessary costs. He was fantastic throughout, always there at the end of the phone and emails. He was very professional. He really has done an amazing job and if I ever needed to use a solicitor again I would definitely use Slee Blackwell. I 100% recommend Jack.”
