Excellent advice for settlement agreement

Alex was a pleasure to work with. Being a senior HR specialist I have worked with many employment lawyers and Alex was a pleasure to work with. Straight talking, realistic and yet fully supportive of me as his client negotiating the best package possible. I would highly recommend him and will definitely think about using him the in the future either for myself or when working in a professional capacity.

Making sense of a contentious issue

I had recent cause to contact Alex regarding a contentious issue for a member in her workplace. I particularly welcomed Alex’s very clear distinction between arguable legal points and claims that would be likely to succeed in practice. That helped me enormously in framing the conversation I need to have with my member. I very much appreciated Alex’s thorough response.

Very helpful, practical detailed, and a pleasure to speak with!

Alex is a genuinely lovely person, which is helpful when dealing with less savoury aspects of life like legal agreements! He explains everything clearly and more importantly he has a detailed eye and finds the terms that matter (and helps you change them!) He's also very pragmatic and considerate of time and will help as needed but also encouraged and advised you how to handle any negotiations so it's cost effective!

Really helped us when we needed it

We needed a solicitor at very short notice to help draft an ET3 employment tribunal response. Alex was recommended to us and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to everyone else. He was knowledgeable and pragmatic. He went above and beyond at a time when our options were limited. The only section of the review I did not give 5 stars was value for money as Alex is very senior and it was not possible to use someone more junior due to the time constraints.

Thank you very much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review. We appreciate that you had hoped to work with a more junior lawyer, but given the short timescales, Alex Kiernan was recommended to ensure you had the right level of expertise. We’re delighted that his experience helped you achieve the desired result at short notice. Thank you again for your kind feedback.
