The Employment Solicitor

I was referred during a traumatic period for my family to Helen and her company by a friend, who had nothing but positives to say about her and her company. I have to say that me experience echos his!
Right from the outset both Helen and Jenna have been professional, honest, empathetic, supportive and given excellent advice.
Jenna has a welcoming, supportive and non-judgmental personality, which allows you to discuss the issues openly and freely. She has been a real bonus to deal with during this time.
Helen is amazing, her knowledge is outstanding and her support, empathy and drive have made a horrendous experience far easier to cope with. Helen listens and makes you feel very relaxed in discussing personal problems and challenges and is able to identify and communicate a path to take.
For anyone who has an employment issue to face, I would recommend Helen, Jenna and the Employment Solicitor firm without hesitation or question.

Helen's understanding of issues and culture still found in the emergency services made her the only choice, in what was a deeply distressing situation for me. I believe there is currently no one better positioned to represent cases like mine and hold powerful organisations to account.
The office is an amazing space where I felt welcomed and protected. The team are such a lovely bunch of people, they go out of their way to create a warm and kind environment. As someone who had never encountered legal proceedings before (and hopes never to again) I can't overstate how important it was to feel comfortable dealing with my solicitor.
Helen's tenacious representation yielded a result that allows me to move forward with my life and career and most importantly, hold my head held high.

After being undecided on whether to take legal action or not for months, I reached out to The Employment Solicitor for an initial consultation to put my mind at rest. I appointed Lauren Bayliss at the end of our call and successfully reached settlement in just shy of 2 months. Lauren and her team kept in regular contact throughout the process, explaining each step of my exit strategy and providing consistent reassurance. So glad I reached out and would encourage anyone having a negative experience with work to do the same even if just for a consultation.

We have had the pleasure of working with Rachael, and her expertise has been invaluable to our company. She has conducted various training sessions with both our management teams and production & warehouse staff, always delivering clear, insightful, and engaging content. Most recently, Rachael led our entire business through Harassment Training, ensuring that everyone understood the importance of creating a respectful and safe work environment. Her professionalism, knowledge, and approachability have made a significant positive impact on our workplace. We highly recommend Rachael and the team for any employment law-related services or training.

The Employment Solicitor (aka The Specialist Law Group Limited) have been a great assistance to me.

From their knowledge of employment law (of course) but through to their understanding of my neurological differences (I have Asperger's) and how to communicate with me have been invaluable.

From the off, they explained what my options were and what expectations I should or could have but, at the same time, they never put me under any pressure to settle my dispute with my former employer, rather, instead, took a stance of, ‘If you are not happy, then don’t settle’, whilst explaining the consequences and risks of not settling in a reasonable and honest way.

I have been very happy with this firm, including those with whom I have dealt with specifically and more often, including Jenna, Kerry and the boss, Helen, but also everyone else who I dealt with perhaps once or twice only!

Also, and importantly, this firm is also not solely ‘money orientated’ like some other solicitor firms have been in my past experience. Of course, they are a business, not a charity, but, unlike many law firms, they don’t simply see ‘£’ signs every opportunity they have to write a letter or email or answer a telephone call.

Would I recommend them? Yes. 100%. And if I ever need a solicitor to represent me in a similar case in the future, I’ll be calling them again! But I really hope that I’ll never need to, though.

Helen is just indescribable. The woman is a walking textbook of knowledge. She never rushes you off, she will always come at it from a different angle. As an autistic woman this was a huge step for me and Helen just got me, understood the way my brain worked and subsequently managed my expectations accordingly. I would have been lost without her, and it is fair to say she protected me in a way that I was unable to do myself. Its amazing having her in your corner. Her team are lovely, in particular Jenna is the sweetest every time I phone. Their levels of empathy are another level.

Thank you all for everything, and I will always feel protected knowing you would be in my corner.

This company was recommended to me by someone who had used them in the past. They are not at all local to me but this was not a problem.
Zakia was assigned to deal with my case. She was helpful, friendly and gave me sound advice which enabled me to deal with my company who had no clue what they were doing and had breached my employment rights.
I was able to achieve a great outcome with her help. My company paid all the legal fees which was a bonus.

I had an excellent experience with Lauren, regarding my settlement agreement. They were incredibly professional, responsive, and helpful throughout the entire process. They took the time to explain all my options and different routes I could take, ensuring I fully understood my choices. Their guidance made a complex situation much easier to navigate. I truly appreciate their support and expertise and would highly recommend them to anyone in need of legal assistance

From the moment I got in touch the process was explained clearly to me. Helen took on my case but her diary is such that it took nearly a week to have our initial meeting. During the meeting we covered all relevant points and Helen was able to quickly established the angle the strategy that we should proceed. At the end it took less than a week from that meeting to achieve an improved terms on my Settlement Agreement. I am very pleased with the outcome.
