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.

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!

Daniel Woodman

Tagged solicitor Daniel Woodman

I had a meeting with Daniel regarding an employment issue. He was approachable and supportive throughout the process. I felt that he gave me clear, constructive advice about how to conclude an upsetting chapter at work. He allowed me to discuss my concerns and feelings; he listened well; and he made me feel that I could move forward with my life.
