Helping our community plan for the future with peace of mind.

We’re thrilled to have once again been recognised by the Legal 500 in the 2024 edition. Our Personal Injury, Clinical Negligence and Contentious Probate and Trusts departments have all been recognised after receiving great feedback from our peers and clients.

The Legal500 have named us as the “go-to firm” for clinical negligence claims due to our ability to ‘competently handle complex claims’. The team received great feedback from the independently organised Legal 500 research team, including “I continue to be impressed by the Clinical Negligence team and how they competently handle complex claims. I have heard only positive feedback from claimants when assessing them. I have recommended them to friends in the South West with potential claims as I know they will be in safe hands.”. Within the team Oliver Thorne, Caroline Webber-Brown, Clarissa Ellerington and Mia Nicholson have all been recognised.

The success continues with our Personal Injury team where James McNally, Elizabeth Duncan and Jasmine Moxey-Butler have all been named as experts in their fields as the Legal 500 comments that the team is best known for “its stellar track record in niche areas of personal injury, in particular Animals Act, abuse, and criminal injuries compensation authority claims”. They also receive great feedback, including “This firm is excellent, experienced and high quality. I received a highly competent, professional and sympathetic service.”

In our Contentious Probate and Trusts team Naomi Ireson, Lee Dawkins, Hayley Bundey and Chris Holten have all received recognition. The team received a myriad of great reviews and feedback, including “From the moment I contacted Slee Blackwell, I felt reassured by their expertise and the professional manner in which they conducted their business. They were always courteous and very prompt in dealing with our contentious probate claim which I had not found with other companies.”

We’d like to thank all of clients and industry colleagues who took the time to speak to the Legal 500 and provide their comments. We remain committed to providing the very best service to each client.

A little bit about the Legal 500 - It is the pre-eminent guide to law firms and solicitors in the UK and has over four million users visiting its website every year.
