Redundancy Settlement

I would highly recommend Steph Marsh and Ivelina White, who supported me throughout my redundancy settlement with my previous employer. From the very beginning, Steph was professional, knowledgeable and approachable. She took the time to explain everything clearly, made sure I understood my options, and provided honest and practical advice throughout the process. Having to deal with a redundancy settlement can be a stressful and uncertain experience, but Steph gave me confidence that my interests were being properly represented. Ivelina was also extremely helpful and efficient throughout. She was always responsive, kept me updated and helped make sure the process moved forward smoothly. The communication from both Steph and Ivelina was excellent, and I always felt that my questions were taken seriously and dealt with promptly. I was particularly impressed by how approachable and supportive they both were. They made what could have been a very difficult process much easier to navigate and ultimately helped me reach a satisfactory outcome. Thank you to Steph and Ivelina for all your hard work and support. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone who needs professional legal advice and assistance with an employment matter.

Redundancy settlement

Being made redundant is not a pleasant experience when dealing with a global corporate. Steph was able to deal with my employers solicitors professionally and firmly. She secured a much better outcome for me, both financially and legally moving forward.

Helped alleviate the stress from dealing with employment law case

Steph and Ivelina were great. We had a call to discuss the case, and from that point Steph kept in contact throughout negotiations with the employer…managed to get the offer increased to a satisfactory resolution in a timely manner. It was the efficient communication that really supported in what is a daunting process that was the stand out in using Steph and Ivelina. Thank you again!

Excellent Service

I recently used Coodes for legal advice regarding an Employment Settlement Agreement and couldn't be more satisfied with the service received. All meetings were conducted via Teams, which was incredibly convenient, no travelling required, and everything ran smoothly from the comfort of home. The advice provided was clear and straightforward throughout the entire process. Every available option was carefully explained before any decisions were made, which gave me full confidence that I was making the right choice for my situation. The whole experience was stress-free and professional from start to finish. I would highly recommend Coodes to anyone in need of expert employment law advice.

Excellent Service all the way

Absolutely amazing experience. Lottie was very knowledgeable, always approachable and understanding throughout the whole process and she is an expert with first-time buyers. She was on hand when I needed her and she was brilliant at keeping us updated throughout the whole process. We cannot thank her enough - she was absolutely exemplary throughout. If you are a first time buyer and you are looking for a really good solicitor to talk you through things and to make the experience as painless as possible, Lottie is the person to have in your corner because she will explain things in a way that you can understand and she takes time to make sure that you understand everything that is required throughout the whole process . She is absolutely brilliant at answering emails and will ask you if you want to chat on the phone if you need to also. We cannot thank Lottie enough for everything she has done and could not have done this without her or Coodes so from the bottom of our hearts thanks a million 🙏

Faultless service

Michelle guided us through a very protracted house sale, she showed infinite patience and worked for our best interests. I must say given the time put in by Michelle the fees were very reasonable and in line with the original quote.

Used for conveyancing and totally brilliant from start to finish. They are certainly not the cheapest, but you get what you pay for and we couldn't fault them. We recommend them and would use them again.

We used Kathryn Shaw and Mandy for our sale and purchase of our new property. We highly recommend them, they pushed so hard to get us in as quickly as possible and our purchase was complete in 11 weeks! We will definitely use them again and highly recommend anyone needing conveyancing to contact Coodes

Dear James Thank you so much for taking your time to write this kind review. We were delighted to be able to help you. Coodes
