“Mark Heptinstall did a fantastic job”
Mark Heptinstall did a fantastic job dealing with everything professionally and quickly, responded to queries quickly and clearly even while on holiday or after hours, I could not be more pleased with the service provided.
“Responsive, considerate and very professional. Highly recommended.”
Excellent service from the team at Slater Heelis. Responsive, considerate and very professional. Highly recommended.
“The support and legal advice I received was excellent”
Having had to resolve a complex family case involving child arrangements, I engaged the services of Slater Heelis. Throughout this difficult time the support and legal advice I received was excellent and resulted in a positive outcome in Family Court. I would not hesitate to recommend their services should I need further legal help in the future.
“Would highly recommend”
Excellent professional service! Very informative and helpful meeting and we were provided with additional follow-up information after the meeting. Would highly recommend.
Professional, compassionate service was delivered with speed and accuracy , thank you.
“His advice was clear and always in my interest”
Mark Heptinstall 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.
“He is thorough, knowledgeable and takes no nonsense”
Highly recommend Mark Heptinstall - 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!!
Extremely friendly and professional service from true experts - offices throughout Manchester - very easy to reach.
“Mark Heptinstall guided me through, step by step, calmly and clearly”
First choice for legal support. Whichever support and advice I have needed over the last 10 years then Slater Heelis has provided the perfect solution. In the most difficult circumstances of divorce, financial settlement and child access Mark Heptinstall guided me through, step by step, calmly and clearly, to reach satisfactory solutions. I even remember the judge commending him on the result he achieved in court in reaching an agreement. For numerous conveyancing requirements the team have always been extremely efficient and thorough. Daniel Henderson is spot on every time. Quick and easy Will preparation see Chris Partington. Extremely glad I was introduced to the firm.
“Mark's knowledge of law and compassionate approach really was a shining light”
I'm not usually one for reviews - I felt compelled to write one, after contacting a different organisation on a very personal family matter they passed my details on to Slater Heelis - within hours I was in the safe, secure reassuring professional hands of Mark Heptinstall. Mark's knowledge of the law and compassionate approach really was a shining light. Thank you so much!

“I felt handled with compassion and patience”
I want to Thank You enormously for the manner in which you handled my rent divorce case. quite apart from your legal expertise which was 100% SPOT ON! I would like to commend the sensitivity with which you dealt with the case due to the high emotional stakes involved. I found the case harrowing and I felt handled with compassion and patience throughout especially when needing you to reiterate advice about the complex option. Thank you for your steady and very capable handling of my case. Your measured approach and carefully evaluated tactics produced a swift and outstanding result, one which I frankly thought impossible. Well Done and many, many thanks. Yours gratefully. PK

“Offered an amazing standard of service from start to finish”
Caroline has, not for the first time in my life, been fabulous. She's offered an amazing standard of service from start to finish. She's the opposite of the stereotypical image of the lawyer "bumping up" their fees and she has consistently dissuaded me from any litigation which wasn't 100% necessary. She's always been there at the end of the phone whenever I've needed her and is a really genuine and pleasant lady to work with.
“Extreme professionalism”
I have unfortunately had the need for an outstanding solicitor re matrimonial matters. Besides the fact that Caroline Swain is excellent at her job she is also an extremely compassionate lady for this I was truly grateful for. Would highly recommend her for her extreme professionalism and obtaining the best outcome for her clients.
“Found Caroline and her team to be very personable”
There are many words to describe Caroline and her team at BPS Family Law in Hale but the word that stands out the most is they were Simply Outstanding. I found Caroline and her team to be very personable and have a great bedside manner. Each stage was explained in a very simple and concise way through my divorce and they would bend over backwards to make sure their client was happy. Recommending their services is done without hesitation.
“I highly recommend Caroline”
I can’t put into words how Caroline & her team at BPS Law have supported me during a very difficult & complex divorce. I highly recommend Caroline for those who want a solicitor who has the skills to diligently achieve a successful outcome. For what has been the most difficult time, emotionally & financially for my children & I, Caroline & the team was there every time to respond & manage every situation that arose leaving me consistently reassured. Caroline was very honest with the possible outcome that could possibly be reached at the final hearing which eased my worries & anxieties. This helped me regulate my own emotions on the actual day and led to a successful & very fair outcome. I now feel I have a massive weight lifted from my shoulders. Thank you!

“She leaves no stone unturned”
I highly recommend Myerson Solicitors, especially Jane Tenquist and her team in family law. She leaves no stone unturned, works in a very calm and collective way. It can be very daunting and difficult to understand every correspondence that you have been sent in relation to a divorce, Jane does explains this in a more simpler form.
