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.

Paul Quinn

Tagged solicitor Paul Quinn

I needed assistance with adding a clause to my temporary change of hours contract. MBH were very helpful and provided a very satisfactory service and experience all round, helping to ease my stress and getting the new contract rewritten and issued quickly. I will certainly use them again and recommend their services to others.

Vanessa Gillbanks

Tagged solicitor Vanessa Gillbanks

I found Vanessa Gillbanks extremely helpful and informative, using language that was easy to understand at a time that was very stressful to me. I would readily recommend this company. The charges were advised to me before I started any proceedings which of course was preferable as I was able to budget for these. I am completely happy to go back to Richard Nelson LLP for any future needs.

Eloise Jones

Tagged solicitor Eloise Jones

I unfortunately needed to use a solicitor recently as I was made redundant while on Maternity Leave. I was put in contact with Eloise Jones, an employment solicitor working for Whitehead Monckton, and from beginning to end, I had the best experience with her. She was always available to contact, all communication was clear, formal and efficient. She made such a stressful situation a lot easier for me with her knowledge of the law and my rights, as well as her compassion for the situation I was in. Really can’t thank her enough for her time and effort while assisting me, I do hope to never be in the same situation but if I was, I’d be using her again without any doubt.

Sharon Hundal

Tagged solicitor Sharon Hundal

Honestly, the reassurance and level of respect these ladies have from the off is just second to none. I was SUPER anxious and needed some speed with my query and Helen Young, Milly Baxendale and Sharon Hundal did exactly that. Sharon was even due to go on holiday yet offered to sign a document whilst away and took the time to take my mental health at the time in account with all things considered. I have used BMTC for conveyancing and now for employment law help - I honestly, couldn't ask for a better team of ladies. (Theres gents there also but I have only dealt with the ladies until now haha!)

Emma-Louise Hewitt

Tagged solicitor Emma-Louise Hewitt

From my first phone call and face-to-face meeting I knew I was in safe hands. Emma was understanding and approachable throughout. The advice she gave was both professional and honest, and I had full confidence she would represent my interests well. I greatly appreciated her support and council throughout the process and would, without question, use her services again.
