Employment Settlement

Being completely outside my sphere of knowledge I was most impressed by the professional attitude, communication and actions taken by Varsha to oversee the settlement process to the satisfaction of everybody involved. Thank you.

Advice on an employment settlement agreement

I met with Varsha Maistry-Ahmed recently in relation to a Settlement Agreement. This was an entirely new thibg for me as I had been with the same employer for many years. Varsha’s explanation to me of the agreement was done with such care to ensure I fully understood everything. During the initial meeting Varsha had worked out that I should receive a greater payment than offered. One email from her to my employers and the lump sum was increased. This was all done with one meeting and Varsha kept me fully updated . I cannot express my gratitude enough to Varsha for her guidance and advice whilst maintaining her professionalism throughout and making the whole process as easy for me as possible. I would not hesitate to recommend Varsha and indeed the firm of Charles Coleman’s for all their help. Esther Watton

Above and Beyond: Professional and Human

Every difficult situation has something positive that comes from it. One of the best things to come out of my matter was the opportunity to be advised and represented by Varsha. She is an exceptionally knowledgeable, experienced and professional solicitor, with a refreshing approach and, frankly, enviable attention to detail. I felt that she genuinely cares about her clients as human beings, not just as cases. This was very important to me. Throughout the process, I felt informed, reassured and rather balanced after our conversations, both on professional and personal levels. Her guidance and advice helped me navigate a very challenging period and achieve the best outcome realistically available to me. I also genuinely enjoyed learning about the legal aspects of the matter, as Varsha's passion for her work made the whole process quite engaging and interesting. I am truly grateful to Varsha for the above-and-beyond support, and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking employment law advice. THANK YOU.

A highly recommended employment solicitor (Varsha)

I highly recommend Varsha at Charles Coleman. She supported me through a redundancy process with my past employer, providing clear, expert advice on my options. Her guidance during the settlement negotiations and review was invaluable. I recommend contacting Varsha if you find yourself in a similar situation.
