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.

Emma O Meara

Tagged solicitor Emma O Meara

I was recently made redundant and asked Sherrards Solicitors to review my redundancy agreement. My case was handled by Emma O'Meara, who was incredibly thorough and made everything clear throughout the process. She even reviewed documents on her day off, which I really appreciated. After the agreement was signed, an amendment was needed, and Emma kindly handled it at no extra cost—something I’ve never experienced with any other solicitor. Her support genuinely made a difficult situation much easier. Highly recommended. Thank you, Emma!

Laurence Dunn

Tagged solicitor Laurence Dunn

Since January 2009, we have been subscribing to DC Employment’s Enhance package. For a very competitive annual fee, they provide expert help and advice on all aspects of employment law. We normally ask our query by e-mail, and receive a clear and comprehensive response the same day, often within an hour or two, from our designated partner, Mr. Laurence Dunn. If the matter is urgent, we have the option of speaking to Laurence on the phone, often receiving an answer immediately. We have received invaluable help on matters such as parental leave, disciplinary hearings, employee disputes, paternity leave and redundancy, and the advice has always been delivered in a prompt, efficient and professional manner, giving us complete peace of mind. We have always been more than satisfied with the outcome. We would therefore have no hesitation in recommending DC Employment to any company looking for a knowledgeable, competent and trustworthy firm of employment law solicitors

Kara MacGregor-Duke

Tagged solicitor Kara MacGregor-Duke

Although it was only one meeting for advice and it is likely that no further business will take place between us, Kara was very professional, thorough and informative with her communication of what things I should consider with my case and what I could maybe think about doing next. As a result, I would recommend Complete Clarity & Simplicity Legal to anyone looking for concise legal advice.

George Vickers

Tagged solicitor George Vickers

Having chosen to accept voluntary redundancy, the settlement agreement stated I needed to take legal advice. George was amazing and found a swathe of inaccuracies that I would never have spotted, the main one being that my settlement figure was below what I was entitled to. George made the document make sense and explained all the clauses and how they were there to protect me. My employer was expecting me to just sign the document but George made sure the document was accurate in all areas to protect my rights. Would highly recommend George who was so helpful and who ensured the document worked for me and I understood each section.
