Professional and personable

I was recently recommended Lydia at Thackeray Williams for advice and support with a settlement agreement. Lydia was fantastic. A true expert, she explained all the legal terminology in simple terms, gave recommendations for improvements and led the negotiations on my behalf to a positive outcome. Thank you

Professional and personal

I engaged Lydia's services to handle a settlement agreement following redundancy. From our initial phone call, through our face to face meeting and all subsequent interactions Lydia was always very clear and transparent about the process - and costs, and pragmatic in the advice she provided. She was able to secure me an increased payout and improved terms of the agreement. I would not hesitate to recommend her services to anyone else going through a similar situation.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your review for Lydia, Mr Selman, and for the 5-stars. It's good to know that she was able to secure an increased pay-out, and improved terms for you. Redundancy is never an easy one to navigate, so I’m glad that Lydia's pragmatic approach helped to make the process clearer and more manageable. Wishing you the very best in your next chapter.

Advice on Settlement Agreement

I have used Thackray Williams previously, so they were a first choice for support and advice on a settlement agreement with my employer. Lydia Button was able to schedule a prompt meeting, with flexibility of in person or virtual meeting. Despite the short notice she had reviewed the documents in detail and was able to provide good counsel, not seeking to change things unnecessarily, just providing good explanations and advice and changes only where necessary. She always responded promptly to further queries, and the agreement is now settled.

Settlement Agreement

Lydia provided advice in regard to a settlement agreement I was offered by my employer. Ahead of our first meeting she provided guidance notes which allowed me to come to the meeting fully prepared. Lydia explained everything thoroughly, giving advice where needed and kept me update through the whole process.
