Top 10 of 3,549 law firms for Maternity and Paternity, Employment

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Maternity and paternity rights cover a person’s entitlement to leave and pay around the birth or adoption of a child, and the protections against unfair treatment linked to pregnancy or parenthood. A solicitor in this area helps clients understand eligibility for Statutory Maternity Pay, Maternity Allowance, Paternity Leave and Pay, and Shared Parental Leave, and what to do if these rights are denied or mishandled. The work often involves advising on timelines, communicating with employers, and pursuing claims in the Employment Tribunal if necessary.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The specialist protects a client’s position when crucial, time-bound decisions about leave, pay and reinstatement must be made; mistakes can lead to loss of pay, gaps in employment rights, or unfair treatment. A solicitor ensures correct deadlines are met, gathers necessary evidence and paperwork, and can challenge refusals or dismissals through ACAS early conciliation and, if required, an Employment Tribunal claim.

Tagged solicitor Omar Qassim

I am very happy with the service and advice Omar and Sabeena provided me throughout this process. They made things simple, from the moment I contacted the firm the communication was excellent which led to a speedy resolution and the sound and transparent advice provided to me helped me immensely. If I have any legal matters in the future I would use Curwens firm and will be recommending the firm to friends and family. Thanks again for all the assistance you provided me.

Tim Grainger

Tagged solicitor Tim Grainger

Having to deal with the employment matter I had was very stressful and damaging to my mental and physical health. So I am happy to say I had a really smooth and supportive experience when put in touch with Fiona Bruce & Co LLP, specifically Tim Grainger and his Secretary Rachal Ward. A friend recommended me Tim's services after they had Tim support them with their own employment case. I asked for contact details and reached out. It wasn't long before Tim got back to me and we started chatting. He was really approachable, friendly and made me feel I could talk to him and discuss my matter without feeling against a countdown or timed meter; this was especially appreciated due to my neurodivergent traits. At the time, I wasn't in immediate need for Tim to take action, so the fact I could build a rapport, update him and ask for small bits of advice throughout my case was really assuring and reduced stress. When I did need Tim's services a few months later - he was honest, clear and timely to provide me good advice and use his legal knowledge to break down concerns and confusion I had while also fighting my corner to get me the best deal I could to my case. Long story short, Tim was able to help me alongside my union put my employer into checkmate and got me a good settlement where all the admin and documentation was easy to access and come in timely manner thanks to Rachel. I work in the video games space that sadly sees not the best treatment for workers, so I am happy to recommend services based on my experience :)

Elizabeth Barrett

Tagged solicitor Elizabeth Barrett

I have never had to request the services of a solicitor for an employment issue before, but having suddenly found myself embroiled in a dispute with my employer, a friend kindly recommended Downs Solicitors. As soon as I was introduced to Liz (Elizabeth Barrett), I immediately felt a sense of reassurance. Liz offers a caring, honest, friendly and approachable manner in equal measures to her professional knowledge, dedication to her work, and a purpose and passion to achieve the desired outcome for her clients. She is an asset to your firm.
