Melanie Best Employment Lawyer

Over the last 12 years, I have unfortunately been through a few redundancy processes, and I have been very fortunate to have Melanie Best support me each time. Unlike many firms that take a ‘conveyor-belt’ approach, Melanie is exceptionally thorough, responsive, personable and empathetic. She takes the time to understand the nuances of complex situations and ensures her clients are protected both financially and reputationally. Her advice is clear, pragmatic and focused on achieving the right outcome. I would highly recommend her to any professional navigating employment law issues and will continue to instruct her in the future. Thank you Melanie, for being a true advocate.

Melanie was amazing at handling my case with sincerity, efficiency and patience. At all times, I felt informed, listened to and reassured that Melanie was handling this. During such a stressful time, she helped ease my mind answering any and all questions, providing advice and perspective. My case was swiftly resolved with a positive outcome. Melanie will be my first point of contact should I ever need to again. I recommend her highly!

I had the pleasure of working with Michele during my settlement process, and I couldn’t have asked for better support. She was exceptionally knowledgeable, patient, and thorough — guiding me through every step with clarity and genuine care. Michele made a complex process feel manageable and ensured that I fully understood all legal details before making any decisions. Her professionalism and attention to detail were outstanding, but what stood out even more was her approachable and reassuring manner. It made a real difference during a stressful time. I am truly grateful for her advice and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking reliable, expert legal assistance.

I had a really positive experience working with Melanie. She has a very professional and calm manner, balancing empathy with expert advice. Melanie was easy to contact, methodical, and she clearly explained the nuanced legal jargon for a non-legal person to easily understand. Melanie provided timely responses to my questions, and her attention to detail was exceptional, identifying and resolving the gaps in a Legal Agreement, and keeping me updated throughout. I felt listened to, supported, and extremely well-advised. Melanie’s guidance helped me navigate a sensitive situation to achieve the best outcome. I can’t recommend Melanie highly enough.

Melanie advised me on an employee settlement/unfair dismal case and is extremely knowledgable in this area of law. Melanie was extremely understanding in what is a very unsettling time and couldn't have been more helpful. Melanie actually recommended another legal contact who could take my case through to tribunal which meant that she invested her own time at no financial gain, but was only concerned about ensuring I got the best outcome. I couldn't recommend more highly. Thanks Melanie!
