Top 10 of 3,549 law firms for Family Leave, Employment

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Family Leave covers statutory rights to take time off work for family and dependants, including maternity, paternity, parental and shared parental leave, plus related rights to return to work and pay where applicable. A solicitor in this area helps clients understand eligibility, explains how to apply for leave, and drafts required applications, notices, or agreements with employers. They also advise on managing pay, keeping records, and challenging improper refusals or reductions in entitlements, ensuring the client’s position is protected during leave and on their return.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The key protections hinge on deadlines for applying, the correct notice periods, and the right to return to a job on terms no less favourable than before. The solicitor clarifies interactions with pay schemes, such as maternity pay or shared parental pay, and handles disputes if an employer mismanages leave or pay.

I called Burrows and was put in touch with Janice, who met me in person to review the agreement and offer advice. I was very satisfied with the service overall, and everything went through without a problem. I would highly recommend Janice if you are in a similar position.

Julie GrangerLeigh Anne Prebble-Benn

Tagged solicitors Julie Granger and Leigh Anne Prebble-Benn

Dear Julie, I was made redundant in July and was advised by my company to speak with a solicitor about my redundancy settlement. Not only was I upset and worried about the situation, but also very scared and nervous about contacting a solicitor as this was all new to me. I contacted Kingsfords and spoke firstly to Jacqueline Chappell, who was very helpful and gave clear instructions on what I needed to send to her. Jacqueline immediately made me feel much better and told me that it would be Leigh Prebble-Benn who I would have my telephone appointment with. When I first read through my settlement agreement I didn't really understand what it all meant and so when Leigh took the time to read through it line by line to explain things in simpler terms, it wasn't so overwhelming. Leigh also gave clear instructions on what I needed to do next and everything was all done quickly. It was also very lovely to know that I could contact Leigh if I had any other concerns. Their professionalism and kindness is outstanding and I wanted to thank them both as I am truly grateful. Best wishes and kind regards

I engaged Michael go help me navigate a complex contract, and he did so efficiently and clearly, making the unfamiliar language used in the contract nice and clear. He was additionally helpful in pointing out where a clause was standard procedure and when it wasn’t
