A refreshingly different experience

We had found ourselves in a dispute with a commercial occupier in our building, and whilst we've been trying to resolve it ourselves, it was a complex situation and we'd got to the stage where we needed some legal advice, and clarification on where we stood - as well as to understand our options going forward. In the past we'd tried contacting a number of firms including the big ones in Tunbridge Wells, and no one had been interested in helping us with an initial step of a review of documentation and consultation. Fortunately when we tried again, I found Jill - and working with her was a breath of fresh air. She fully appreciated our scenario and desired approach, and we agreed a fee cap for a review of all the documentation we'd gathered and a consultation which really helped firm up our understanding of the situation and position. It's also very reassuring now to know we have Jill on hand should we need to take anything further in future. I just wish we'd found Jill sooner!

Thank you for your thorough and professional service

Before leasing new commercial premises, we enlisted the services of Thomas Litigation to review the exceedingly disorganised and outdated lease agreement presented to us by our landlords. Jill and her team diligently identified inconsistencies and problematic clauses, ensuring that the necessary corrections were made to avoid any future potential issues. The entire legal process was handled thoroughly and efficiently with updates being provided at each stage. I highly recommend Thomas Litigation.

Experience, attention to detail and professionalism

We were introduced to Jill to help us resolve a complex, high-value and long-running insolvency issue. It was an area that both us and our existing advisors had little experience in. Jill quickly set out a clear path and continues to help us every step of the way to a successful resolution. Due to the issue's complexity, we are using several firms to assist us and what sets Jill apart is not just her experience, attention to detail and professionalism, it is also that Jill is always available to answer all of our questions (no matter how simplistic or wrong-headed), keeps us fully informed at all times and consistently goes above and beyond.

Jill is also one of the best mediators I have experienced

I have known Jill Thomas as a lawyer for many years. She is consistently at the top of her game. She is very good technically and bold when it comes to looking after her clients’ interests. Jill is also one of the best mediators I have experienced, settling many difficult cases with a calm, sensible approach.

Outstanding experience

EXCELLENT AND PROFESSIONAL SERVICE - Working with Jill Thomas of Thomas Litigation was (and continues to be) an outstanding experience. Jill’s knowledge and years of experience are hugely beneficial and she pays particular attention to detail in our individual circumstances and requirements. We cannot highly recommend Jill Thomas of Thomas Litigation enough as we have and continue to use various services in connection with property, construction and engineering and contracts. It is always a pleasure to initially discuss the particular subject matter with Jill who in turn provides a brief overview on the next steps and deals with the matter in a timely manner. In our opinion Jill is very approachable, discreet and hardworking and has made communication easy when dealing with stressful and difficult circumstances.

Highly recommended

Jill Thomas was highly recommended to me by a business colleague and friend when I needed a strong and expert litigator. I had not needed to engage someone with her skills for a long time so the personal recommendation was needed and appreciated. I found Jill to be highly knowledgable, calm and extremely reliable, her advice was clear and succinct which was extremely helpful when tactical decisions needed to be taken. Emails were responded to quickly and she inspired confidence from the outset. I would not hesitate to engage her to act for me if ever I needed similar help in the future.

First-class litigation solicitor

As a client of Jill’s and having instructed her to act on my behalf in several cases, I have seen at first hand how her extensive experience and knowledge of the law, combined with a desire to obtain the best results for her clients, marks her out as a first-class litigation solicitor. I would much rather have her on my side than against me, whether in court proceedings or mediation.   Jill likes to get to the bottom of a problem and understand her clients’ aims and aspirations, as well as the practicalities of the situation.  I would recommend her highly for her insight and sharp mind.  She is also user friendly and approachable.  I wish I had found her years ago.
