    Excellent Service

    As someone with very limited knowledge of how to navigate a legal matter, I am so glad I came across Morecrofts and had the opportunity to work with Mr Dawson. From the very beginning, I felt heard and understood during what was a very tumultuous time. Mr Dawson was incredibly professional, while always taking the time to explain things clearly and make sure I understood the process. I felt that I was in very safe and capable hands throughout, and I would absolutely recommend Morecrofts and their services — in fact, I already have!

    Employment law advice

    Excellent advice and service offered by Derek in what is a difficult situation leaving a company. Provided full explanation of the terms of the settlement and ways to ensure a smooth agreement. Derek helped with clauses that protected my position going forward.

    The best solicitor I have ever dealt with

    Derek is wonderful and was an amazing support throughout my legal case. I definitely wouldn’t have been able to do it without him. Not only is he knowledgeable, he is kind and compassionate ensuring that I understood and felt ok throughout it all. Forever grateful for the support I was provided with from Derek and I will forever be grateful
