Top 10 of 3,549 law firms for Self Employed, Employment

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Self employment covers people who work for themselves rather than as employees, including sole traders and independent contractors. A solicitor in this area helps with drafting, reviewing and negotiating contracts, terms of engagement and payment provisions, and with issues around tax status and deductions. They assist in pursuing unpaid invoices, resolving disputes with clients or agencies, and advising on remedies such as small-claims or civil litigation, as well as advising on how to protect trade secrets and intellectual property.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

Contracts and terms of engagement are the core focus: ensuring clear scope, payment terms and remedies for breach. The solicitor handles disputes, file preparation, and strategic advice on enforcement, including court or tribunal proceedings where required. They also explain how status affects rights and responsibilities, and address consequences of late payment, breaches of contract, or misclassification.

George Vickers

Tagged solicitor George Vickers

Having chosen to accept voluntary redundancy, the settlement agreement stated I needed to take legal advice. George was amazing and found a swathe of inaccuracies that I would never have spotted, the main one being that my settlement figure was below what I was entitled to. George made the document make sense and explained all the clauses and how they were there to protect me. My employer was expecting me to just sign the document but George made sure the document was accurate in all areas to protect my rights. Would highly recommend George who was so helpful and who ensured the document worked for me and I understood each section.

Angela West

Tagged solicitor Angela West

I cannot speak highly enough of Angela West at JCP Solicitors. Angela represented me through the appeal of a dismissal from my role as a school teacher — an incredibly stressful and isolating experience. From the very beginning, Angela listened carefully to my case, offered clear and reassuring initial advice, and drafted a thorough and compelling appeal letter. She then recommended involving Counsel at an early stage and sourced an excellent Barrister who strengthened the appeal and identified grounds for an employment tribunal based on unfair dismissal and whistleblowing. Angela continued to work tirelessly, preparing for the appeal hearing and drafting the particulars of claim with exceptional attention to detail. Thanks to Angela’s hard work, expertise, and meticulous planning, my appeal was successful — something almost unheard of within the public sector. As a result, we were able to withdraw from the tribunal, and Angela supported my smooth and fair return to work. I received full back pay and the assurance that my position and reputation were protected. I am profoundly grateful to Angela for her compassion, commitment, and unwavering dedication during one of the most difficult times of my life. She not only ensured that the truth was heard, but she safeguarded my career from potentially devastating consequences. I would highly recommend Angela to anyone. Her knowledge, professionalism, and genuine care make her an outstanding solicitor, and I will always be thankful for her relentless support and encouragement.
