“I contacted Naomi Ireson about contesting a will. It has been an emotional journey and Naomi and her team have been professional, courteous and highly efficient throughout the whole process. We had a successful outcome and it was all down to Naomi. I can highly recommend this firm and the fantastic team.”

“I would just like to say that from the moment Chris took my case on he immediately made feel more at ease with the decision I had decided to take in pursuing which I thought I was entitled to, even though many people said I would get nothing. Chris from the outcome was always confident, which was what I needed as at the time I was in a very bad way after losing my Fiance. Chris was and is always polite and would explain everything to me in terms that I could understand. I never at any point put the phone down thinking, ‘I have no idea what he meant’ which I am sure can happen with Solicitors not of his calibre. I thank him very much for making me feel I was his only case the whole way through. Nothing was too much trouble. Chris is an absolute credit to your firm and I would have no qualms in recommending him to others should they require his expert advice. Many thanks once again to Chris and your firm for making a very difficult situation as painless as it could possibly have been.”

“Anya was professional, knowledgeable, and supportive throughout a complex, prolonged probate dispute. I’m very grateful for her expertise and would highly recommend her.”

“I first contacted Chris after the death of my partner. Chris is and was very helpful, giving me very clear and usefull information about my case. He always is very fast in answering my questions in a clear and professional manner. The phone calls with him were uplifting at a very difficult time. He was very understanding and also comforting in the hard times I am going through. Chris is very engaged and acts very professional in any aspects of dealing with my case. I recommend him and his team to everyone.”

“Brontë, guided us through a very difficult time, and always gave the best advice even if it wasn’t what i always wanted to hear. I really appreciated her honesty,her knowledge and experience. I’d highly recommend.”

Client Testimonials

“Executor dispute and contentious Will mediation”

I was in a difficult position with a co-executor that left the estate idle and Slee Blackwell were excellent in navigating a resolution to achieve the appointment of an independent PR. In addition my father’s Will was being challenged by one of the beneficiaries against the largest recipient of the estate and Naomi Ireson was very solid in her advice and helped to arrange a successful mediation. Naomi was ably assisted by Sharnie Jenkins in this matter. “Executor dispute and contentious Will mediation”

“Expertise and Understanding”

I was tentative about making enquiries from Australia with a UK group of solicitors, Slee Blackwell, about a claim on a deceased estate there as an ex-spouse. Right from the get go I was treated with respect and expert advice with Kristi. Anya was instrumental in guiding me through the whole process and I was very impressed with her expertise and obvious knowledge of the situation. If I lived in the UK I wouldn’t hesitate to use this firm again. Thank you to Anya and her team. “Expertise and Understanding”

“Positive experience”

I contacted Kristi regarding an inheritance matter and she was swift to respond and the issue, which has been ongoing for three years now, was immediately resolved. I highly recommend. “Positive experience”

“Challenge to the validity of a will”

Unfortunately, I had to defend a challenge to the validity of my fathers will. Naomi Ireson, with the help of Sharnie Jenkins and the rest of the team were absolutely amazing. It was such a stressful time but Naomi had my back through it all, and pursued the case relentlessly. Her expertise and competence in her field is exemplary and I never once believed that there would be a problem. The team kept me informed at all times and were always easy to talk to. I would recommend them in a heartbeat. “Challenge to the validity of a will”

“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! “Defending a claim made against Estate”

“Contentious Probate – Establishing Paternity”

The brother of my grandfather died without children, and after a dispute with my family who said that I was not the son of my father, I read a very professional article written by Naomi Ireson that was very informative. I saw that I could ask some questions and her answer really helped. I later hired her and she resolved the accusation of my family. She is also very organized and is doing only what is necessary. Thank you for your work and to all the members of your team. “Contentious Probate – Establishing Paternity”

“Dispute – Breach of Trust”

I can’t express enough gratitude to Chris for his outstanding service over the past year. My case was especially challenging, but Chris handled it with compassion and the highest level of professionalism. The outcome was fantastic, and it wouldn’t have been possible without Chris’s expert advice and support. I would strongly recommend his services to anyone who is going through a difficult will dispute. Many thanks again Chris! “Dispute – Breach of Trust”
