Excellent Employment Solicitor

Emily, Kellie and the team at Poole Alcock Solicitors were highly efficient, knowledgeable and extremely helpful. I was given sound advice and friendly assistance. Their service was swift, professional and the fact that the team were contactable and helpful made things all very easy for me, when leaving my employment.
If anyone is looking for an employment solicitor, then I would not hesitate to recommend Poole Alcock Solicitors LLP to you.

Sophie performed miracles to ensure we met our tight deadline for purchasing a house. We encountered numerous challenges, including the site needing to close temporarily and delays in receiving responses to our queries. Throughout the process, Sophie maintained a high level of professionalism and diligence, always prioritising our needs. She provided us with peace of mind during a very stressful situation. I highly recommend her services!
