Redundancy Consultation

5

Right from the start, I felt empathy and support from the desk assistant who answered my initial call, to right up to the conversation with the solicitor, Jamie Riseley. The whole experience, which could have been more stressful, wasn't. They were incredibly friendly and took away any anxiety I may have had. Thoroughly appreciated their help.

Settlement agreement

5

Had no idea how this process worked and though contacting Poole Alcock LLP and dealing with Kellie Evans and then Jamie Riseley the process was explained and professional. During my time as their client I was kept informed of everything and felt reassured throughout. Really would recommend to others as they are helpful and understanding to each situation I faced.

I am extremely happy with the service I received from Jamie Riseley and his team in regard to their handling of my redundancy Settlement Agreement. During the on-line meeting I had with Jamie himself, I found him to be very friendly, helpful and insightful.
Later in the process, when my employer failed to meet an agreed deadline, Jamie sent an additional email that prompted them to into fulfilling their obligations. Highly recommended.

I chose Poole Alcock as they were highly recommended on Google and with a lower price than local Solicitors. I took my paperwork to their satellite office in Reading and they took certified copies and sent them to the central office for me. All other correspondence was by direct email, with very quick responses and clear instructions. A well organised operation and an effortless experience overall.
