Settlement negotiation
It was a pleasure to deal with Ola. She was friendly and businesslike, turning around the relevant document quickly and adding clear comments which helped me make decisions I was happy with. I would recommend her and Quantrills to anyone in my situation.

A shining light
Ola proved to be my one shining light at the end of a long dark tunnel, when no-one else seemed prepared to help. I cannot thank Ola enough for her support, advice and guidance in my rather tricky matter. She was sympathetic, professional and her knowledge and advice was spot on. Ola's response time to calls and emails was extremely fast, which helped move my matter along quickly, and thanks to Ola my matter was resolved with a positive outcome in my favour. I would 100% recommend Ola to anyone who requires support with an employment matter. Thank you,Ola!!

Employment Law specialist advice for Breach of Contract claim win
I experienced the most refreshing and professional approach with specialist Employment Law Solicitors Simon Quantrill (Principle Solicitor) and Ola McGee whose expertise and first class service guided me to a successful legal win against my former employer. The level of support and care I received throughout rather a difficult case was quite incredible. I always felt they were by my side at all times and despite some worrying periods throughout the litigation I was always reassured throughout and given the confidence to fight my case. The attention to detail and continued evaluation of the facts provided the best possible position for our instructed counsel to take the case forward on my behalf. I will always be grateful for the incredible service I received and would be very pleased to recommend others to use this wonderful honest company.

Misconduct Allegation
A malicious allegation was made against me to the TRA. This interrogation went on for two years. It got worse in August 2023 as the trade union rep wasn't able to convince the TRA that I was not guilty. Through my own online research I came across Quantrils Solicitors and was delighted when Ola decided to act in my defense.
After explaining the matter, I can recall Ola telling me, 'don't worry. We'll fix this matter for you.' Her confidence through these words gave me great hope.
After responding to the TRA, I am happy to say that the case was closed with NFA.
Thanks to Ola and her team who did fantastic job to make this happen.
