    Apprentice rights cover the work-based training arrangement where someone is employed while studying. A solicitor in this area helps with the rights an apprentice has as an employee and trainee, including pay, holiday, notice, and protection from unlawful discrimination, plus the guarantees around their apprenticeship contract and the training element. They also handle disputes about pay and entitlements with employers or training providers, and advise on the steps if training is not delivered as promised.

    “I came to Slater Heelies after a disaster with previous solicitor. Alex from the onset was friendly, reassuring, professional but firm. Many times she had to challenge my perspectives and encouraged strength. Alex had an objective approach and was always quick and prompt in replying to emails and calls. Her in depth knowledge was reassuring and was able to relay in a succinct manner that was easy to digest. I felt with Alex’s friendly manner that she always had my best interests at the heart and was extremely reassuring during the whole process which was really appreciated. I would have no hesitation in using her again… but at the same time hope that there would never be a need. Thank you ”
