Truly outstanding service and support

5

Working through an unanticipated process with your employer can be very stressful, but Victoria Mitchell and the team at Farleys were super-supportive every step of the way, providing clear and well thought through advice and guidance. Importantly, Victoria was always available throughout to chat or answer any questions of concern. Farleys provided an amazing level of professionalism, service and responsiveness and would have no hesitation in recommending them. Truly outstanding!

The service was efficient. The solicitor acted professional and in time; also took initiative and, with my consent, dealt with the case without me having to interact with the other part. The outcome was the best option I could have get.

I recently used Farleys for support with an employment law matter and was genuinely impressed with the service I received.

A big thank you to Victoria Mitchell, who was incredibly professional, patient, and supportive throughout. She kept everything clear and straightforward, and her perseverance helped achieve a fair and sensible outcome. I always felt like I was in safe hands.

I’m also grateful to Bob Worsley and Danielle Hartley - it’s clear they work together brilliantly as a team, and their behind the scenes support certainly didn’t go unnoticed.

What I really appreciated, and, if I’m honest, what pleasantly surprised me - was how human and down-to-earth they all were. No confusing legal jargon, just honest advice, calm guidance, and the occasional well-timed bit of humour when it was most needed!

If you're dealing with an employment issue and want a team with real legal expertise, a wealth of experience, and a clear, honest approach to managing expectations, I’d absolutely recommend them.

Thanks again to all involved!

A really helpful legal team. Danielle was very detailed when collecting and asking for all the required information. Victoria guided me through my case and fully informed me on the areas we needed to challenge.

Throughout all the consultations Victoria was very supportive and professional. I felt confident we would achieve the desired outcome.

I can only thank the team, specifically Victoria & Danielle who I had contact with, and I would recommend Farleys Solcitors to anyone who needs legal support.
