First Class Employment Law Advice
When you are facing the trauma and stress of litigation, you want someone with a cool head, an intuition for how things will play out and sound knowledge. David has been round the block a few times and is able to advise the client of all the variables in the cauldron of litigation! He is an employment law specialist - he does nothing else, beware of lawyers who 'dabble'. He keeps in regular contact, advises about fees and truly wants the best for the client. My family has used him on several occasions and I notice that he has many returning clients - that is always a good sign. I have recommended him to many friends and all of them wanted him to take on their matter - not surprising as David is a solicitor that you feel comfortable with from the outset. A five star service and a five star firm.

Redundancy related issues
The firm and in particular David, helped me from the first suggestion that redundancy was likely, all the way through to completing the exit. David provided invaluable advice on how to proceed and to get the protections that would be needed as a former director.
