Expert guidance with empathy.

5

Working with Kate regarding a sensitive employment matter, from the outset, Kate was exceptionally professional and clear in her communication. She meticulously checked for any conflicts of interest and thoroughly verified all pertinent details, ensuring a solid foundation for our discussion. Kate's approach was not only methodical but also empathetic, acknowledging the complexities of my situation without rushing the conversation.

Throughout our interaction, Kate demonstrated an impressive depth of knowledge and a keen understanding of employment law. Her advice was practical and focused on achieving a realistic and favourable outcome. She patiently explained the options available to me, helping to clarify the steps I could take to strengthen my position. Kate's guidance was invaluable in preparing me for upcoming consultations, and her reassurance gave me confidence in handling a challenging situation.

Overall, Kate's helpfulness and the clarity of her advice were outstanding. Her professionalism made a significant difference in how I approached my employment issue, and I am grateful for her support.

Perfect advise and assstance.

From start to finish, I can highly recommend Kate Key and Lincs Law after searching for a specialist in employment law. If I did not find Lincs Law and take advantage of their services I am confident that I would not have achieved the outcome that I wanted.
The first call was the most important and the free advise at that stage was crucial to the proceedings. Do not hesitate to contact this firm with any employment law matters.
I cannot rate highly enough.

Employment law help

5

I recently had a conflict with my employer regarding wage deductions related to an incomplete course. Feeling that this was unreasonable, I decided to reach out to LincsLaw by submitting my details on their website. I was pleasantly surprised when I received a phone call back the very next day, followed by a consultation just two days later. During the consultation, I had the opportunity to present my documentation to Kate Key, who provided me with comprehensive advice on my options and how to proceed. Her informative guidance has given me the confidence to handle this situation independently, and I appreciate knowing that I can reach out to her if I need further assistance. Thanks to Kate, I no longer feel pressured by my current employer.

Exemplary support and service from beginning to end.

5

For anyone who has been called into a meeting to be told, out of the blue, 'Settlement Agreement' or 'go on a performance review' - you have my total empathy. This very situation happened to me recently and it was a real kick in the teeth. As luck would have it, my wife was in a similar situation a few months ago, had used Kate's expert service to resolve her dispute .. it was a no-brainer to get in touch and see how she could help. Without delving into too much detail (it has been a genuinely stressful experience) Kate's approach resulted in a significant better settlement offer. It seems that a number of employers think they know the law / can wing it and can offer the lowest (and offensive) offer in the hope that departing employees just take it ... out of shock if not anything else.
Having Kate support me through the ordeal provided real comfort in a genuine time of need. Really recommend.

Employment matter

I had a difficult and complicated situation with my employer of over 10 years.
I reached out to Kate early in the process and was given clear, concise and professional advice.
Kate was helpful with the questions I had and ensured I was aware of my options and likely outcomes.
Due to the cost of legal advice I was worried about the cost vs benefit but Kate offered flexible terms and kept me fully aware of options, likely costs and outcomes.
Based on my experience I would recommend Kate for advice and guidance when dealing with difficult employment situations.
Thank you ๐Ÿ˜Š
