I used Elizabeth Duncan to deal with a case she rarely responded to information she asked for, contradicted information provided, I found she had an aggressive approach to response, she didn't process information sent which resulted in her asking me to pay to continue with a claim that was no win no fee, very poor quality and a poor response to the legal process, I could have represented myself with a more positive result, I would think really hard about using this service if you want poor results, regarding the response below I noticed that they didn't add the fact that the original statements

Terrible solicitors. Not proactive and pass the blame for their mistakes. Poor response.
Ongoing for well over a year, they lost all my paperwork and made me do it all again. Passed between people constantly. They don't respond to your emails or call you back. (I only got a response to my email I wrote a month ago because of writing this review)... They continue to ask me the same questions over and over despite me having already provided these details ample times yet they keep losing this information. They wrote up a letter of claim and wrote it up incorrectly yet shunted the blame for their

Used Slee Blackwell following a dog bite when I was warned by the plastic surgeon that there was long-term potential for complications caused by infection, so I needed to make a claim against the dog owner's insurance. Jasmine was very helpful and understanding of my needs and wishes. All through the process, she was very quick to respond and very helpful with advice.

Rachel Thain.. She is honestly the best solicitor I ever worked with!!!!
I really thank you for all her hard work she's done over the years. If not her I wouldn't be where I am now. I really appreciate it. She has always been very supportive to me, always explained everything. And we never gave up.
She is honestly amazing and I will definitely recommend her to friends and family over the years and if I ever need any help again I would be contacting Rachel!
Best company with best solicitors!!! It was such a pleasure to work together.

I had my accident 3 years ago, on my way to my work as a night duty nurse. I sustained so much injuries and was taken to A&E hospital. I knew I had the legal right to claim for compensation so searched for a firm of solicitors. Slee Blackwell became my choice from my old yellow pages.
At first, I found it difficult not to have a face to face meeting with the solicitor, but I was guided very well thru letters and telephone conversations. At some stage, I became too stressed with all my doctors appointments,x-ray, MRI scan, and treatments, but I was encouraged to pursue my claim.
I am very grateful

I contacted Slee Blackwell for an initial consultation and spoke to Charlotte 're a disputed clause in a will. Charlotte was very good and reviewed my case in the first instance and provided an honest overview of my case and made good suggestions regarding the way forward without incurring unnecessary legal cost which proved enough to get the resolution I wanted. Would certainly use them in the future as it was not all about fees to them.

Hi. I would like to help anyone looking for advice when in need of a good solicitor. I can highly recommend calling Slee Blackwell for quick response to resolve any family issues. The help and advice I was given. Took the weight off my shoulders and allowed me to proceed with my divorce having the full picture of proceeders and cost. Very friendly and professional service.

We have used Slee Blackwell Solicitors for the last 3 years across a few areas of law and can confidently recommend anyone in need of professional, approachable and super efficient solicitors. Whilst we initially found ourselves in an extremely stressful situation through no fault of our making Slee Blackwell Solicitors took time to understand our issues. They then explained in a way we could understand how this was seen in law and recommended a course of action. We were extremely pleased with the out comes and as such have been happily recommending Slee Blackwell to our friends and family who
