great expertise and insight

i found that David was not only able to provide me with excellent legal advice, but also seemed to have a sound knowledge of likely outcomes and behaviours based on the situation i was having issues with - this helped me to prepare for the next steps well

Thank you V. for your review. It does not always work out but i am really pleased on this occasion it did, in large part due to your own approach and willingness to seek alternative solutions. Your ultimate 'employer' also deserves some credit for the approach taken and outcome achieved. Well done.

Fantastic support with an upsetting employment situation

5

David and the team were professional, supportive and provided expertise advice for a very upsetting and difficult employment exit recently. I felt extremely vulnerable about my position with my former employer and David was able to provide reassurance and his expertise meant for the best possible outcome from a horrible situation, thank you.

Excellent support to Whistleblowing & Constructive Dismissal Case

5

David Thomas at Quay Legal represented me in a long running and complex whistleblowing case against my former employers. The case involved multiple protected disclosures, detriments to a whistleblower and constructive unfair dismissal. David was approachable, provided great support and calmly dealt with the "difficult" approach taken by the respondent's solicitor in this case. I could not have navigated the complexities of employment and whistleblowing law without David's support. Throughout the case, David provided sagely advice working closely with me and our barrister to achieve a successful outcome at the employment tribunal and then negotiate a fair and reasonable settlement.

Thank you for the excellent feedback. It was a pleasure working with you. I am pleased we could help and support you through the difficulties, to achieve a very positive outcome. Whistleblowing/constructive unfair dismissal are difficult areas - we won because you were a 'good' client, providing clear instructions, doing what you needed to do and providing energy and urgency where needed. Wishing you all the best in the future David.

Great legal advice, clearly put and very helpful

5

I contacted the team as I was in need of some relatively short notice on some revisions to my terms and conditions of employment. The team took the time to understand what it was that I was after and then provided exactly the advice and legal support that I needed. They explained the process and costs very clearly and even responded at very short notice when I needed to speed up my timelines. I have already told them that when I need more support I know exactly who I am coming back to. A special thanks to David, Helga and Beata.

A client

I had an extremely turbulent, emotional, and stressful time with my previous employer. This led to a settlement agreement, which led me to use the services of Quay Legal.

David Thomas was the solicitor I used. His service was exceptional, thorough and he handled my case with sensitivity. He was able to give me factual information and advice, leaving me to make my own considered decisions.

I have had an long impeccable career history, and never imagined to be in a position where I would need an employment lawyer. David’s professionalism, coupled with sensitivity and much needed humour was exemplary.
