What clients say about Carly.
John and I would like to thank you for everything you have done for me… You definitely made the process a lot easier for me in what has been a very stressful and sometimes daunting future living with this injury. Your patience has been very much appreciated. We wish you all the best in the future and again thank you.
I have nothing but praise for Carly. Carly helped guide us through a very difficult experience with care, grace and professionalism. She made everything as easy as she could for us and answered any emails or calls straight away, even though I wasn’t her only case.
What a wonderful young woman. Very rewarding. Clear instructions for me by e-mail or post and the real work was done by Carly Sylvester who got me excellent compensation in a short space of time.
I wanted to say a huge thank you to Carly and Emma at Slee Blackwell for their help with my case. They worked consistently to reach me a positive outcome even when dealing with such a difficult and unresponsive defendant. If it wasn’t for their help I wouldn’t have received any compensation. I highly recommend using these solicitors. Thank you again!
Excellent service, 10/10 communication throughout – thank you! I recently had Carly Sylvester working on my claim, and cannot thank her enough for the great work she put into it. Her communication throughout was regular, clear, and she was always happy to answer any questions I had. I have never been through any legal process before, and she made everything very manageable, and I am truly grateful for the great service she provided. Thanks to Carly, and the whole team at Slee Blackwell!
Carly Sylvester did an excellent job in pursuing my civil case. She kept me informed and updated all through this case and was a pleasure to deal with, no jargon straight talking and a very empathic demeanor, I would highly recommend Carly for this type of legal work.
