Redundancy Settlement

I recently engaged People Legal to deal with my redundancy settlement agreement and cannot speak highly enough of their services. From our first interaction, it was clear that I was in capable hands. People Legal demonstrated exceptional professionalism, combined with a deep understanding of employment law, which immediately put me at ease during a challenging time. What stood out most was their ability to explain complex legal terms in a way that was easy to understand, ensuring that I was fully informed at every stage of the process. People Legal was not only thorough but also very approachable and empathetic, making a potentially stressful experience much more manageable. The dedication and attention to detail were evident in the way they negotiated on my behalf. People Legal went above and beyond to ensure that my interests were protected and that I received a fair and satisfactory settlement. I am extremely grateful for the support and guidance provided by People Legal. I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of expert legal assistance with employment matters. Their combination of expertise, professionalism, and personal touch truly sets them apart.

Surpassed all expectations

Chris is an extremely focused and professional legal advisor. This is the second time in four years that my family have required employment law advice and Chris surpassed all expectations and delivered a result that we did not believe possible. All of this was achieved within a limited space of time. The contact whether by email or telephone is almost instantaneous and time lines are proposed and agreed to without delay. I suspect that individuals are apprehensive about dealing with employment issues and Chris immediately puts you at ease and provides reassurance and guidance. First class service.

Incredible from start to finish

People Legal provided quick and brilliant advice to support us as we challenged an employer for unfair dismissal and refusal to consider flexible working arrangements. Chris and Lauren took the stress out of the situation and supported us so that we were able to continue with our case. Nothing was too much for them and they were always available to explain things along the process. Without any reservation, we would recommend People Legal to support you in any employment case. Thank you

Review for People Legal

Chris and the team provided me with precise and timely professional support as I sought to navigate new and uncertain territory both personally and professionally. More than having no hesitation in doing so, I will actively encourage colleagues, friends and family to engage with People Legal if they require any Employment Law advice. Thank you for a robust and enjoyable (despite the circumstances) process.
