Tagged solicitor Samira Cakali

I honestly can't recommend Winston Solicitors enough. I reached out to them when I was in need of employment law advice and received a call from Samira. She was friendly and gave me some advice when my world had been turned upside down. Samira handled my negotiation for me, along with her excellent colleague Dervinder. They made me feel comfortable, stood up for me and my rights, and negotiated a great package. I would wholeheartedly recommend them and would not hesitate to contact Winston Solicitors if I ever need legal help again.

A big thankyou to Lauren Kilbride of Rothera Bray Solicitors for her patience and understanding of a difficult work situation , although we did not obtain the outcome we wanted. Lauren did everything she could to help us and was very honest, efficient and excellent at keeping us informed at every stage. I would certainly obtain her services if ever needed in the future.

Sylviane Kokouendo

Tagged solicitor Sylviane Kokouendo

I instructed Slater Heelis to represent me during a settlement agreement following what I believed to be an unfair dismissal by my employer. From the very beginning, the solicitor (Sylviane Kokouendo) provided clear guidance, reassurance, and a strong understanding of employment law, which made a difficult situation far more manageable. The company’s initial offer was significantly below what was fair or reasonable. Sylviane took the time to understand the circumstances of my dismissal and used this information to negotiate firmly on my behalf. As a result, the final settlement was substantially improved compared to the original offer, reflecting a far more appropriate outcome. In particular, she successfully negotiated the following key improvements: • An increased ex gratia termination payment, ensuring the financial settlement better reflected the impact of the dismissal. • A higher contribution towards my legal fees, reducing my personal financial burden. • Inclusion of a reference clause, providing me with a fair and supportive reference for future employment. • Inclusion of outplacement support, which will assist me in transitioning to new employment opportunities. Throughout the process, communication was prompt, clear, and supportive. I felt fully informed at every stage, and her professionalism and negotiation skills made a meaningful difference to the final outcome. I would confidently recommend Slater Heelis especially Sylviane Kokouendo to anyone facing a similar situation.

Adrian Green

Tagged solicitor Adrian Green

Positive experience from Adrian Green, albeit in an unfortunate and somewhat opaque employer situation. He advised and guided me through the process, providing personal and empathetic legal support. Have used this practice for both conveyancing and an employer workplace agreement - both faultless engagements.
