Clear, pragmatic and human employment-law advice
I instructed Liz Burley to advise on a settlement-agreement offer. From the first call she explained my position and risks in plain English, set a strategy that balanced firmness with pragmatism, drafted every response, and held the line against hard deadlines and heavy pressure from the employer. She negotiated an improved deal, stayed in touch out of hours when tensions spiked, and turned documents around at lightning speed. If you need straight-talking, fast and genuinely supportive employment advice, Liz is outstanding

I needed a solicitor to review a legal document from my employer within a tight deadline. Liz and Akshat were very thorough in explaining the document in detail and advising me appropriately. Excellent service and great communication all the way through the process. Would certainly recommend.
