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.
