Charlotte GarveyPaul Lott

Tagged solicitors Charlotte Garvey and Paul Lott

I can not recommend SweenetMiller enough, their service was professional and all communications felt personally customised to my needs. I was kept up to date as regularly as needed. Organisation of document transfers and visits to the office were flexible enough to meet my availability.

Joanne Davis

Tagged solicitor Joanne Davis

My employer put me in contact with B P Collins in April 2021 for a specific litigation, which lasted until early November. Although the whole experience and process for me was new and quite daunting, they were absolutely first class in approach and highly professional, and sensitive to my feelings as the case progressed. I would have no hesitation at all in recommending Jo and the team.

Naomi Ireson

Tagged solicitor Naomi Ireson

Quick communication, measured advice and I felt confident in adhering to Naomis suggestions. Naomi was confident of a successful outcome from the outset and this was reassuring and ultimately she was successful in my case. I would recommend Naomi personally and due to my positive experience I will also be using Slee and Blackwell for other services.

Peter Kidd

Tagged solicitor Peter Kidd

I recently worked with Peter on an employment settlement, and his service was fantastic from start to finish. He was clear, supportive, and incredibly efficient throughout the entire process. Peter took the time to explain every step in a way that made me feel confident and reassured, and his attention to detail was second to none. What could have been a stressful experience became smooth and straightforward thanks to his expertise. I’m genuinely grateful for his help and would highly recommend him to anyone needing employment law advice.

Kyle Connor

Tagged solicitor Kyle Connor

Kyle Connor was recommended to me by a friend when I required an employment solicitor. Kyle promptly responded to the initial query that was sent to him and organised a subsequent meeting to discuss the details of the case. During the meeting Kyle was exceptionally helpful, I have very little background knowledge of employment law and Kyle patiently explained the anticipated process in layman’s terms. He was professional throughout our interactions and helped to reassure me of the steps that were being taken and fully outlined my available options. Despite the opposing side being rude to Kyle he handled their ignorance flawlessly. The result from the case was very positive with Kyle facilitating that I acquired what I needed from the negotiations. I have gone on to recommend Kyle to people I know personally and if I am ever in need of an employment solicitor again, I shall contact him immediately.

I cannot recommend Josh highly enough. He provided exceptional support, guidance, and professionalism throughout my employment matter and made what was a very stressful situation much easier to manage. Josh handled my case with great care and attention to detail, always communicating clearly and ensuring I fully understood every step of the process. His expertise and dedication were instrumental in successfully negotiating my settlement agreement and achieving a positive outcome.

I contacted Martin Tolhursts regarding an employment matter and was provided with a first class service. Everything was explained fully and ensured that I was fully aware of what was going on.
