Slater Heelis
Mark Heptinstall of Slater Heelis is an exceptional lawyer. I found him to be extremely knowledgeable, approachable, down to earth and pragmatic. His advice was clear and always in my interest. Once I'd decided my course of action he was thorough, professional and quick. It felt I had a top barrister as my new best friend and I can't recommend him highly enough.
Dave ByronDear Mark,
Just a little note to thank you for your hard work in helping me through this very difficult time in my life. It was a pleasure to have you working for me.
I would have no hesitation in using your services again or recommending you to friends and acquaintances.
Please also say thank you to your collegues and receptionist who have also been very kind.
A satisfied client from A Chapman Manchester.
nathan burnI would highly recommend Mark Heptinstall as he is without doubt the most amazing solicitor.
I had used different legal representation during my divorce 2 years earlier which had been acrimonious. Each step was frustrated by my ex which added to the stress, duration and cost. I was never really comfortable with the advise I was receiving but stuck with it. I now know that much of this could have been avoided by the right legal representation.
On recommendation I approached Mark to complete the sale of the Former Matrimonial Home which was again being frustrated by my ex. Mark's approach to resolving this issue was remarkably different.
> Quickly gained a thorough understanding of my situation.
> Focussed and prioritised the major issues.
> Highlighted errors made by my previous solicitor and found solutions to effectively overcome them.
> Clearly communicated with the other side taking control.
> Presented my case in court effectively against counsel.
I was amazed that he won the case, and costs and then tied up the loose ends that I had written off.
Mark is so approachable, I felt like I was his only client. He is thorough, knowledgeable and takes no nonsense.
In summary EXCEPTIONAL!!
Ellen McCallumMark Heptinstall helped me throughout my divorce with his empathy and knowledge and competence.
I would have been lost without him and owe him a great deal.

Hatton Law
What can I say, thankyou really does not do it justice. All the way through the whole process Sharon (in Deborah's team) and the team at Hatton law were amazing. You have restored my faith in justice. I'm a father who had been trying to get regular contact with my two sons and had the stereotypical difficulties. Everything that my boys and I wanted has happened. We all owe you a debt of gratitude. To any single dads thinking about making things official I would recommend this company. It was worth all the blood sweat and tears. Thankyou again.
Jamie DoyeEasy to get an appointment and the 1hr session we had was great with useful suggestions, names of useful contacts and absolutely no pressure to instruct Sharon (in Deborah's team) unless we think we really need help later.
Ben WhiteVery helpful team.

The Best Family Solicitors, Independently Listed
Each solicitor listed by Wiselaw is independently researched and considered against strict criteria. Examples of the criteria are shown below.
Trusted Reviews
The quality and content of feedback that clients have given via trusted review services such as Google and TrustPilot.
Recognised Accreditations
Formal accreditations that are awarded to firms based on their expertise and/or their outstanding working practices.
Award Winning
Industry-recognised awards for superior business practices, legal expertise or customer care.
Client Focused
Evidence of high quality client care, including reviews received, publishing and sharing legal knowledge, and quality of enquiry replies.
Reported Cases
The extent to which the solicitor has been involved in cases that have helped to shape and change wider family law.
Price Band
Is the solicitor one of the best within their price band? A lower-priced or mid-priced solicitor will be included if they are the best compared to other solicitors in the same price band.
Proven History
Does the solicitor have a proven track record, earned over years, of being an extremely shrewd legal practitioner? They aren’t in any way new or unproven.
Legal Specialism
The solicitor is well recognised for having a specialism in a particular area of family law, such as international divorce, abduction, or custody.
Rising Star
Is the solicitor part of an established firm and they have quickly gained a reputation for being expert in their field? A highly skilled rising star who doesn’t yet command the highest fees, so making them very good value.
Depth of Team
Does the solicitor’s surrounding team contain high calibre lawyers and secretaries who collectively can offer broader and deeper legal advice as circumstances require?
