Data Breach Case

After initial consultation over the phone,I decided to commit to Spencer Shaw Solicitors to handle my case.
I was not disappointed.They took care of all details of an employer transgression very thoroughly and professionally, and got the outcome that was required and closed out the whole episode clinically and considerately for both myself,and with respect to my employers.
Would recommend their services to anyone looking for a competent and professional team to administer to their requirements.

Fantastic service

I needed the expert help & advice from a employment solicitor and I have to say that I certainly received it from Spencer Shaw LTD👍👍
From start to end the service was exceptional, it was so clear and precise all the information received I could not have asked for anything better.
My issue got resolved in very timely manner and with so little fuss, it pays to have experts to hand to minimise any anxiety or worries.

I would highly recommend Spencer Shaw Solicitors LTD 100%

Thanks again

All the best

Excellent support and clear legal guidance

I was very impressed with the service provided by Ms. Nazia Khan and the firm. She took the time to explain each step of the process clearly and thoroughly, which brought me real peace of mind. I truly appreciated her professionalism, clarity, and efficiency.

I am equally satisfied with the firm’s overall handling of my case and the responsiveness of her assistant, who was always prompt and helpful. I highly recommend both Ms. Nazia Khan and the firm, and I am sincerely grateful for their support throughout the process.

Waste of time. Called me at a time I’d specifically told them I wasn’t available, then were dismissive, patronising and unhelpful. Asked me what I wanted out of the call - legal advice, obviously? But instead I was told to go away, gather more information (but no directions as to what information they specifically needed me to gather) and to call back once I’d done that. No, I will be calling a different solicitors instead, one who actually acts like they want my business.

A representative from Spencer Shaw Solicitors Limited responded to this review on 09 June, 2025:

Hi Stephanie, As our solicitor was unavailable at the time you requested, she chose to call you earlier than requested rather than leave you waiting longer. Although our solicitor did check it was a convenient time, we’re sorry to hear now that it was not. I understand that you wanted definitive answers, but we aren’t able to give legal advice on the free initial call. To provide advice, we would need to assess the relevant information and understand the context. As you did not have any formal information from your employer, and hearsay is not enough to base a claim on, we could only recommend that you request more information about the decision. How you go about this would depend upon your employer’s policies and response, and so our solicitor could not give you an exact process to follow. We are sorry that we did not meet your expectations, but it would be wrong to give definitive advice without being fully informed. We wish you well in resolving the matter.

I had a concern about a employment contract I am presented with taking that is very different to how my working pattern is and therefore looks like it doesn't fit, it is a very confusing situation for me so I requested the professional advice of SSS Ltd.
After an initial discussion there was an issue which the Principle Solicitor understood and handled effectively and efficiently.
I was then given the time and attention to fully express my concerns and these were taken piece by piece so that I was clear on the issues relevant to my situation.
Many thanks to Ian for this clarity and taking the time to resolve this.

A representative from Spencer Shaw Solicitors Limited responded to this review on 28 January, 2025:

Hi Matthew, We're really sorry to hear this. Our Principal Solicitor has taken a look at your matter and would like to speak to you to resolve the problem. He will be in touch later today. Best wishes, Laura
