Excellent & Knowledgeable Service

Having recently been in a position to require legal advice on employment law, I sought the services of Mike Robinson at Askews in Redcar.

He provided a very professional, knowledgeable and supportive service which was executed in a very timely manner and which concluded in a very favourable outcome. I would therefore have no reservations in recommending his services on employment law.

Very supportive through a difficult period

Very supportive, from reception to solicitor always friendly and helpful. I have a very difficult situation after the death of my partner. Rachel and Kieron have been amazing and give me sound advice and kept me up to date on next steps. Thankyou Kieron for your time and eventually we got there and got the best outcome in the end.

Mike Robinson - employment law

I engaged with Mike Robinson for an employment issue I was having. He is extremely knowledgeable and took the time to explain everything to me in a very comprehensive way. I felt he was trying to get the best out of the situation for me as his client and was always easy to get hold of whether through phone or email.

Avoid at all costs

I made the mistake of hiring Derek Clements to act twice for me. He made such big errors both times (didn't read the lease), I had to take the company to the Ombudsman twice. It also turned out he failed to return money to me. Be mindful that their "complaints" procedure is managed by one of their partners K Doran. So, conflict of interest there straight away & as a result, they don't take complaints seriously. Plenty of solicitors out there, so don't waste your money on this one. They were a truly dreadful experience & so unprofessional.
