I was in urgent need of an employment specialist as my circumstances at work suddenly and unexpectedly changed. A quick phone call to WGA is all it took for the ball to start rolling and a meeting was set up within a day or two to discuss my need. One week later, the employment issue was closed. Quite simply amazing service. Highly recommend WGA.

My meeting with Chris was friendly and professional, the details of my case were explained in a way that was 'plain speak' and I had clarification of what action Chris was going to do on my behalf.
After the actions were completed Chris contacted me to update me and confirm everything went OK.
WGA are a friendly and very professional outfit, I felt comfortable and in good hands.

Very happy with the service provided. Professional, timely and appropriate. My company paid the fees, so I can’t comment on that aspect. Would come back again if required and recommend to colleagues/friends.

Contacted them to deal with a settlement agreement from my redundancy case, as recommended by our union. Arranged a telephone chat rather than in person as not particularly local to me, was all dealt with promptly and with efficiency. Grateful for the advice given by Chris, was friendly and knowledgeable.

I would wholeheartedly recommend WGA as a both a business and private customer.
