Top 10 of 3,550 law firms for Flexible Working Request, Employment

Law firms ranked by client reviews

A flexible working request covers a formal, written ask by an employee to alter hours, days or how work is done, typically under the UK-wide right to request flexible working. In plain terms, it is the process an employee uses to seek changes such as a shorter week, different start times, or remote/hybrid working. A solicitor on this area helps prepare and submit the request, reviews the employer’s response, and advises on next steps if the request is refused or conditions change. The work often unfolds through regulated timeframes and formal correspondence with the employer to protect the employee’s rights and ensure a compliant handling of the request.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The key decision is whether to approve or refuse the request, since irreversible changes to working patterns can affect pay, benefits and career progression. A solicitor can identify when a manager has failed to properly consider the request, advise on valid business reasons for refusal, and assist with any subsequent steps such as negotiating alternative arrangements or escalating to an employment tribunal if required. The process is time-bound and hinges on a compliant written response and any agreed variations to terms and conditions of employment.

Louise Elliott

Tagged solicitor Louise Elliott

I am beyond grateful for the exceptional service I received from Louise Elliott during my employment dispute. From the very beginning, Louise demonstrated not only an in-depth understanding of employment law but also an unwavering commitment to fighting for my best interests. Throughout the process, which took longer than expected, Louise was a steady source of reassurance. She kept me well-informed every step of the way, explaining complex legal terms in a way that was easy to understand and always ensuring that I was clear on my options. What truly set Louise apart, however, was the way she kept me grounded during a particularly stressful time. When things seemed like they were dragging on, Louise never lost focus, tirelessly advocating on my behalf and ensuring that my case received the attention it deserved. I always felt like my concerns were heard, and I never doubted that Louise was fully invested in achieving the best possible outcome for me. Thanks to Louise's perseverance, professionalism, and exceptional client care, I was able to navigate a difficult situation with confidence and peace of mind. I can't recommend her enough to anyone in need of a lawyer who will truly fight for you.

Alessandro Mancini

Tagged solicitor Alessandro Mancini

Alex Mancini was able to assist me on short notice with review of a redundancy agreement. We were able to sit together and review the agreement in full. He took the time to explain certain portions which may have otherwise escaped my attention. We were able to adhere to the strict budget set by my company. Most importantly, I had to meet with Alex with my 11 month old in tow, so it was heartwarming for her to be received well, including providing her with toys as a distraction (although she found the papers and cables far more interesting). Thank you very much for your help and I would return if needed!
