Lauren, Ellen and Alex were exceptional with what was a very difficult case. They explained every little detail of the case to me and where my employer was in the wrong. They were extremely professional with everything they handled and all the paperwork and evidence they needed to send over was done with extreme detail, making my case very strong. They were also extremely friendly and made talking with them an absolute pleasure which really helps in a difficult process. Their knowledge, expertise and support was phenomenal!

I am incredibly grateful for the support and guidance I received from Lauren. From the outset, she was efficient, approachable, and highly professional, handling every aspect of my case with care and confidence.
What stood out most was Lauren’s compassionate and understanding approach. She made a very stressful process feel more manageable by always being kind, patient, and reassuring.
Her communication was exceptional — clear, timely, and always helpful. I never felt left in the dark or overwhelmed, and she was always available to explain things in a way that made sense.
I genuinely felt that Lauren cared about both my case and my wellbeing. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone needing legal support — she is a credit to her profession.
Thank you, Lauren.

After protracted processes lasting for nearly 4 years, it was ironic that I found myself with just 48 hours to agree the wording of a COT3 to avert imminent tribunal proceedings, so my "ask" of the Specialist Law Group Ltd. felt virtually impossible.
From the outset, my experience of working with this firm was positive. Jenna, who took my initial details, was most assuring and acted so swiftly that I was allocated a solicitor within the day, which in itself amazed me. My solicitor, Lauren, was clearly extremely knowledgeable, incisive, and ambitious to get the best possible result, way beyond my expectations.... which she did!!!! The firm then rounded up with Florence in client after care and ensuring all was well in terms of our working agreement and terms and conditions.
In essence, the legal advice was superlative, as was the wrap around client care. I could not recommend this law firm more highly.

Zakia provided outstanding support and guidance during a particularly challenging time. She took on my case at a very late stage, when I was extremely stressed and had no help. She showed professionalism, empathy, and maintained a consistently positive approach. Her clear explanations and responsiveness helped me feel reassured and confident throughout the process. I truly appreciate the flexibility and understanding shown around fees, which made a real difference to me.
I’m so grateful to Zakia for her support during such a stressful time. I would highly recommend her services to anyone seeking employment law advice.

Helen and the team have been welcoming and compassionate as well as knowledgeable and professional. We instantly had the impression of a firm that would have our very best interests at heart but also that they had the knowledge and experience to constructively take our case forward. Some really great information and advice was offered right from the first meeting. Their unique approach was relaxed and informal putting us instantly at ease. We have great confidence in her experience to take us along our legal journey

At a really difficult time for me personally the legal team were amazing. Offered great advice, cared and were incredibly professional. They have a real knack for making something that might seem legally daunting more understandable, and answered any questions to ensure I was aware and informed in any decisions I made. I am incredibly grateful to the team for helping me through a really tough couple of weeks and being people I looked forward to interacting with. Thank you, making big decisions can be hard, having trusted and caring advisors can make all the difference.

The Employment Solicitor provided outstanding service, and I had the pleasure of working with Zakia Tariq, who was exceptional throughout. She was professional, knowledgeable, and highly responsive, making complex legal matters easy to understand and guiding me through every step with confidence and care. Zakia’s calm, strategic approach and attention to detail gave me reassurance during a challenging time. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking expert support in employment law. A truly 5-star experience.

I have used Zakia for employment matters on a few occasions. She is excellent at what she does. As someone who has gone through difficulties in my employment Zakia has bought compassion and understanding along with a great deal of knowledge. Both outcomes of my cases were positive due to her management of them. I highly recommend this firm and Zakia.

The Employment Solicitor (aka The Specialist Law Group Limited) have been a great assistance to me.
From their knowledge of employment law (of course) but through to their understanding of my neurological differences (I have Asperger's) and how to communicate with me have been invaluable.
From the off, they explained what my options were and what expectations I should or could have but, at the same time, they never put me under any pressure to settle my dispute with my former employer, rather, instead, took a stance of, ‘If you are not happy, then don’t settle’, whilst explaining the consequences and risks of not settling in a reasonable and honest way.
I have been very happy with this firm, including those with whom I have dealt with specifically and more often, including Jenna, Kerry and the boss, Helen, but also everyone else who I dealt with perhaps once or twice only!
Also, and importantly, this firm is also not solely ‘money orientated’ like some other solicitor firms have been in my past experience. Of course, they are a business, not a charity, but, unlike many law firms, they don’t simply see ‘£’ signs every opportunity they have to write a letter or email or answer a telephone call.
Would I recommend them? Yes. 100%. And if I ever need a solicitor to represent me in a similar case in the future, I’ll be calling them again! But I really hope that I’ll never need to, though.

This is a very professional firm. Zakia Tariq, a senior solicitor assisted me with a complex employment matter. She displayed a great deal of legal acuity, was clear in what was attainable and resolute in her approach. She is a confident, clear minded individual with a great deal of personal warmth and professionalism. Thank you Zakia!
