Peggy, highly recommend

I was recently recommended to speak with Peggy during a particularly difficult time at my workplace and I’m incredibly grateful for that recommendation. Peggy took the time to listen to my situation with empathy and genuine care. She provided clear, thorough guidance on the legal implications of what was happening and helped me understand my rights and options.

What stood out most was her active listening and patience, she made sure all of my questions were answered and helped communicate my concerns back to the HR team before I signed any legal agreements. Her support gave me clarity and confidence during a very challenging time.

Thank you, Peggy, for your invaluable guidance. I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of thoughtful, professional support.

Calm, clear advice at a time of high stress

I can't praise Peggy & Molly enough for their calm, friendly and relaxed assistance at a time when I really needed it. To suddenly find myself needing legal help with redundancy, in a tight timescale, and still get such a warm, personal service - clearly advising me on my legal position, what I should be concentrating on, and focused on me and my welfare - well, I'm impressed, and would 100% recommend Barnard & Webb to anyone.

Great experience dealing with Redundancy.

I had an excellent experience working with Peggy Barnard reviewing my redundancy contract. Peggy was friendly, clear, thorough, and efficient, ensuring I fully understood the terms before signing. Her advice was both practical and reassuring, making a difficult process much smoother. Highly recommended for anyone needing reliable and professional legal support.

Settlement Agreement

Jacqueline made the very daunting process so much easier. She talked through everything very clearly making sure that I understood all the legal jargon. Even though the agreement was not up for negotiation she did manage to get a slightly better offer for me. The matter was dealt with swiftly and sorted ahead of the timeline my former employer had set.

If Carlsberg made Employment Law Solicitors!

The dream team at Barnard & Webb made what could have been a really stressful and complex situation into something that even me with my simple ageing brain was easy to understand and navigate.
The advice I received was always balanced and honest, it is important to maintain balance in these situations as the emotions can run high. Jacqueline and the team delivered a professional and outstanding level of customer service that is rarely experienced these days.
If you want top notch service, with clear on time communication at a very competitive rate, and need to get a positive outcome, then look no further, bravo team B&W.

Barnard Webb helped me with my recent redundancy. They provided clear, detailed and excellent advise throughout the process, were considerate and took my position in to account and were incredibly helpful throughout the whole process

Whilst I hope to never have to use them for a similar process again, i cannot recommend them more to others

Barnard & Webb are highly professional and discreet, operating without prejudice.
They came recommended by a friend as I required representation for a Settlement Agreement.
On our first conversation, I knew I could trust them to give me the best advice and support I needed in the situation.
All questions and actions were explained fully and clearly.
The whole process was complete within a week.
I am extremely pleased with the service I received and I would highly recommend using them in future.
Thank you Barnard & Webb.
