Josh Fresle

Tagged solicitor Josh Fresle

Josh was absolutely outstanding from start to finish. We were working with a tight time frame, but he handled everything with incredible speed and efficiency, making the entire process completely stress-free. His communication was excellent – always quick to respond, clear in his explanations, and proactive in keeping us updated. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and he made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and manageable. Josh is not only highly professional but also genuinely friendly and approachable. A true credit to the company – I can’t recommend him highly enough!

Robert Cranston

Tagged solicitor Robert Cranston

From the outset the solicitor that was assigned to my case displayed a great deal of patience with me, empathy and at no time made me feel uneasy or ridiculous in the questions that I asked. From the telephonist, the secretaries and advocate that I was dealing with in Thomsons everyone was highly professional and put me at ease in the manner they went about dealing with me. I am extremely grateful to the solicitor working on my behalf as when he took the case on he indicated it could be a long process and so it proved to be, but due to his hard work, diligence and endeavour, along with the advocate, they secured the best outcome for me, for which I am hugely grateful. I am also very appreciative of the support my union Unison has been to me throughout this whole experience and for putting me in touch with Thomsons. Overall I can not fault Thomsons from my first contact with the company I would have no hesitation in highly recommending them and thank them for all that they have done for me.

Noel McNicholas

Tagged solicitor Noel McNicholas

I needed legal support on an employment matter. I chose Thomas Flavell partly based on their reviews, partly based on them being local, and partly based on interactions I had with them in the past when moving home. From the initial contact I had with Sarah Toon to the detailed advice I received from Noel McNicholas - the service Thomas Flavell provided was the flawless. Professional, friendly, good value and efficient. Further, they added extra value with helpful suggestions beyond the core issue we were dealing with. I have no hesitation in recommending Thomas Flavell.

Gareth Roberts

Tagged solicitor Gareth Roberts

**Outstanding Support in a Difficult Employment Case** I was recommended to contact Gareth after being blindsided by an unfair dismissal case that came out of the blue. From the outset, he provided clear, professional guidance and helped me navigate what turned out to be a long and difficult process. The opposing company’s legal team was particularly challenging—Gareth even noted they were among the worst he had encountered in his 20 years of employment law. Despite this, he remained steadfast, realistic, and strategic in his approach. While this wasn’t a case that led to a lottery-winning settlement, Gareth helped me assess the risks involved, including the potential for astronomical legal costs. Ultimately, we made the tough but sensible decision to settle, understanding that sometimes, the battle itself isn’t worth the cost. Though the final outcome wasn’t what I should have had, Gareth’s expertise and support helped me through an incredibly stressful and complex time. I have no hesitation in recommending him for any employment law matters—his knowledge, professionalism, and honest advice are invaluable.

I recently engaged Jen to assist with the termination of a member of staff who was within a probationary period under what could have been difficult circumstances and with her assistance we were able to conclude the termination without any drama. Jen was responsive and clear with the advice provided even getting back to me during her day off to celebrate her birthday
