Incompetent

If you dare to comment or complain if you believe they are wrong they make sure they get their fees and refuse to help they left my son who is disabled with no help or support
big egos threatened me if I leave negative reviews but I don’t give into bullies as I have a right to share my views

Excellent Solicitor

Elise took over my case, and she made sure it got solved. She was always available to answer any questions I had.
What I loved most about her was how she kept me updated through the whole process, even when I wasn’t asking for updates.

Thank you Elise x

Professional, Compassionate, and Effective

I honestly can’t thank Holly enough, she was worth her weight in gold during one of the most stressful times of my life. From the moment I first contacted her about my employment tribunal dispute, she was incredibly supportive, professional, and reassuring. She took the time to explain everything clearly, made sure I felt heard, and guided me through the process with real care and expertise.

Thanks to her tenacity and skill, we reached a fair and satisfying settlement that I never would have achieved on my own. It made a huge difference knowing I had someone so capable and compassionate in my corner. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone in need of employment law advice, you’ll be in very good hands.
