Settlement Agreement

I had a great response to my initial phone request with a phone consultation and then in-person meeting happening very rapidly which was extremely comforting.
Jon ensured I was informed of my rights and supported me through discussions with my former employer.
I would thoroughly recommend this company and will be sure to request their support for any future legal advice/service I require.

Jon and the team were so helpful and certainly went above and beyond when it came to the service they supplied us. Me and my colleagues were going through a difficult time negotiating a redundancy with a difficult employer. Jon and his team made this process a lot easier for all of us. Thanks again for your patience and expert advice in navigating a whole new world of HR and employment laws.
