Fantastic Service

5

Sam, Rosie and the wider team were great when we were selling Mums property. Everything went smoothly, as it did a few weeks ago when we sold our our own house.
I have no hesitation in recommending their conveyancing services.

It’s been great dealing with Slee and Blackwall again. I would recommend them to anyone, Sam Millington and her secretary Rosie are lovely people and keep you informed all the way and easy to get in contact with. Plus the receptionist are lovely to and very helpful.

Quick and efficient sale

5

This is now the third time we’ve used Slee Blackwell for moving and they have always been fantastic. Always there to pick up a call at no extra cost and with their online portal it makes all the form filling an easy job. I highly recommend this company and the wonderful team in Bideford who work so hard to make forward steps with their clients at heart.

Sam and Rosie were excellent in the conveyancing of my property sale and purchase. Correspondence was clear, accurate and timely. They really went above and beyond to get the transaction done in very tight timescales. I can’t rate them highly enough.

Working with Slee Blackwells for probate and the sale of our father’s house was swift, professional and supportive. Very quick turn arounds and friendly at all times.

Patience of a saint!!

5

Sam Millington and Rosie Martin acted on behalf of myself for the sale of my property. I couldn’t be happier with the service that was provided to me, our buyers solicitors were extremely frustrating and elongated the process by a good number of weeks, but they handled my persistent calls and emails with such professionalism.

Excellent service

The sale should have been fairly straightforward but unfortunately it wasn't - both Sam and especially Rosie were endlessly patient and helpful and always willing to provide me with information and updates.
Very impressed with their service

Slee Blackwell

Our estate agents sent us a couple of solicitors who they recommended to do the conveyancing on the purchase of our new home. So glad we chose Slee Blackwell. They have been excellent all the way through, kept us in the loop at all times and were professional without being stuffy! They knew we were on a short timeline and managed to get everything completed within our timescales. Highly recommend them.

Samantha Millington handled the purchase of our present home during the time when there was a great deal of activity due to the temporary cancellation of stamp duty creating a great deal of work for solicitors to beat the completion cut off date. There was also a holdup lower in the chain near our completion date but she finished the job in good time. She later provided proof of our ownership of the solar panels on the roof for the transfer of the Feed In Tariff contract. Two way communication was good throughout.
