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.

Angela West

Tagged solicitor Angela West

I cannot speak highly enough of Angela West at JCP Solicitors. Angela represented me through the appeal of a dismissal from my role as a school teacher — an incredibly stressful and isolating experience. From the very beginning, Angela listened carefully to my case, offered clear and reassuring initial advice, and drafted a thorough and compelling appeal letter. She then recommended involving Counsel at an early stage and sourced an excellent Barrister who strengthened the appeal and identified grounds for an employment tribunal based on unfair dismissal and whistleblowing. Angela continued to work tirelessly, preparing for the appeal hearing and drafting the particulars of claim with exceptional attention to detail. Thanks to Angela’s hard work, expertise, and meticulous planning, my appeal was successful — something almost unheard of within the public sector. As a result, we were able to withdraw from the tribunal, and Angela supported my smooth and fair return to work. I received full back pay and the assurance that my position and reputation were protected. I am profoundly grateful to Angela for her compassion, commitment, and unwavering dedication during one of the most difficult times of my life. She not only ensured that the truth was heard, but she safeguarded my career from potentially devastating consequences. I would highly recommend Angela to anyone. Her knowledge, professionalism, and genuine care make her an outstanding solicitor, and I will always be thankful for her relentless support and encouragement.
