Highly reccomend
I recently had the pleasure of working with Steven during my settlement agreement process, and I can't recommend him highly enough. From our very first meeting, he was incredibly friendly and kind, making me feel at ease during a potentially stressful time. He took the time to thoroughly explain every detail of the process, ensuring I understood my options and felt confident in my decisions. His professionalism and genuine care for my situation were evident throughout our interactions. If you need a solicitor who combines expertise with a personal touch, Steven is the one to choose.

I have never had to deal with a solicitor before but I’m so glad I had Steven to help and guide me through my situation, I was very anxious about it all but Steven was very reassuring and gave realistic advice throughout the whole process. He updated me at every stage and was very clear with all of his communication. I would highly recommend Steven and I am extremely grateful to him for achieving the outcome that I wanted.

Settlement Agreement Support
As someone who has worked within professional services for over 10 years, I have a good understanding of best practice and professionalism when working with advisors. I must state, I was absolutely delighted to have Steven as my advocate throughout a a challenging process. Steven combined a professional diligence, depth of knowledge and general shrewdness with being likable, approachable and fundamentally an ally I could rely on.
I couldn't recommend Steven highly enough, if I ever have the misfortune of requiring an expert employment Solicitor again, I'll be coming straight back to him for help.

Redundancy settlement agreement
I was really pleased with how Steve dealt with my case at what was a distressing and uncertain time for me. He took the time to go through my settlement letter clause by clause, clearly explaining each one and how it impacted me. He pointed out the ones which were contentious and suggested amendments and omissions. Steve also asked a lot about what I wanted to get out of this in addition to what was on the agreement e.g. how my departure was to be announced to my former colleagues for which we drafted a suggested communication as well as the request for my 2024 bonus to be paid. I’m pleased to say that both of these were agreed by my former employer. It was all in all a very professional and thorough service that Steve provided and I would not hesitate to recommend him.

Excellent service - and stunning win
I challenged a major UK university over their unlawful use of precarious fixed term contracts over many years. MSB helped with both the internal grievance and the external ACAS process. Because of the strength of the case that we assembled, there was a sharp U-turn by the institution before proceedings reached the tribunal stage. I was granted permanent status - my main aim - and the institution ordered a review of all staff. Large numbers have since been made permanent and achieved job security in light of this victory. MSB staff were a pleasure to work with, despite the obvious stress of a case of this kind, and costs were very reasonable - as well as transparent and set out fairly in advance.
