The Employment Solicitor

After calling multiple solicitors, ACAS, the CAB, and not hearing from referrals I finally had an appointment with James booked in to review my settlement agreement. I gave a brief overview of my situation, and we had a good conversation about my circumstances. I followed James advice on next steps, I had no real ideas about my case and James was able to break it all down for me in a way I could understand easily. In what has been a highly stressfull time, it was great to have someone else in my corner,negotiating for my best interests. Im happy to report we were sucessfull in our negotiations, and I can move on in a much better position. I would recommend both this company and James, along with everyone else I spoke with, to assist you. Thankyou again!

James was able to assist with a settlement agreement & negotiation on a short time scale with the exact result intended.

Alex handled my case, and as it was the first time I’d ever been through something like this, I was understandably overwhelmed and emotional. I knew I had a case worth defending, but I struggled to separate the emotions from the facts. What Alex did brilliantly was channel all of that information, evidence, and emotion into a clear, focused, and strong case. He helped me see what mattered most and presented it in a way that felt fair, balanced, and impactful. I’d highly recommend Alex to anyone dealing with an employment matter. Having someone who can combine legal expertise with a calm, practical approach makes all the difference.

Bhumija, thank you so much for your review. It was a pleasure, working with you and I wish you all the very best moving forwards.

An absolute pleasure to talk to a human being who understands law and sets it out clearly in a friendly, personable and honest manner.

I was referred to the Employment Solicitor by another company, and I have to say the service has been top. Kay Holland was particularly helpful in going through the contract with me and even helped me get a higher ex gratia payment from my workplace. Would highly recommend to anyone going through a similar process.

I had a really positive experience working with Alex Bennett at The Employment Solicitors on my Settlement Agreement. From the very beginning, all of the staff were welcoming, friendly and made me feel comfortable throughout what could have been quite a stressful process. Alex himself was approachable, easy to talk to and took the time to explain everything clearly at every stage. He made sure I understood my options and never made me feel rushed or like just another case. I always felt listened to and supported throughout. What stood out the most was the level of effort and dedication he put into helping me. There were tight deadlines involved and Alex went above and beyond to make sure everything was completed properly and on time. It was clear he was putting in extra effort behind the scenes and making himself available beyond normal working hours to ensure I was protected and that nothing was missed. That level of commitment gave me a lot of reassurance during an uncertain time. I’m genuinely grateful for all of the support and professionalism I received and would highly recommend Alex and the team at The Employment Solicitors to anyone needing help with employment law matters. If you’re looking for someone knowledgeable, responsive and who truly cares about achieving the best outcome for you, I wouldn’t hesitate to get in touch with them. A sincere thank you to Alex for all of his hard work and dedication in helping achieve such a positive outcome — it was truly appreciated.

Robert, thank you very much for your detailed review. It was an absolute pleasure assisting you and I wish you every success moving forwards.

I cannot thank the team enough for the support, professionalism, and compassion they showed throughout. From the beginning they made me feel listened to and believed during an incredibly stressful and emotional process. Communication was always clear, and I felt well prepared for hearings and discussions. They consistently treated me with kindness and respect. The guidance and representation received helped me achieve a positive resolution, and I will always be grateful for the care and hard work that went into my case. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing Employment law suppport. I especially want to thank James Brooks for his support throughout my case. He was consistently professional, compassionate, approachable and reassuring during the process. I am extremely grateful for the work he put into achieving the outcome.

Zakia supported me throughout my dispute and settlement with my employer, clearly explaining each stage of the process so I could understand it with ease. Her advice at every step helped me make informed decisions that were in my best interests. If I ever face a similar situation again, I would not hesitate to use Zakia’s services

I engaged Helen Moore at The Employment Solicitor (trading name of The Specialist Law Group Limited) for professional legal advice during what was a personally challenging period. From the outset, I was impressed by the calibre of legal expertise combined with a genuinely compassionate approach that set Helen and her team apart - while I haven't interacted with other law firms and was referred to Helen by a close friend, I could tell that the level of care demonstrated was exceptional. Helen demonstrated exceptional professionalism and clarity in explaining complex legal matters and helped provide a fair assessment of the strength of my case. What distinguished her service, however, was her people-centred philosophy - she demonstrated genuine empathy for my situation and worked deliberately to ensure I felt supported and empowered throughout the process rather than overwhelmed by the process itself. She took considerable time to understand not just the legal mechanics, but my circumstances, concerns and desired outcomes (which she also helped calibrate). The service I received was thorough and well-organised, and communication was clear. I felt consistently confident that my interests were being carefully managed. Helen's advice was both commercially astute and grounded in pragmatism, enabling me to move forward with clarity and confidence during a transition that could otherwise have been significantly more stressful. What impressed me most was the firm's commitment to removing barriers to accessible legal counsel. The process was treated as a partnership in achieving a positive outcome, not a transactional relationship. The support extended beyond the technical legal advice - Helen demonstrated a genuine investment in ensuring my situation concluded constructively and she went out of her way to connect with me in person following a successful outcome to wish me well for the path forward, she truly believes in helping people move on when they unduly find themselves in a difficult place. I would unreservedly recommend Helen Moore and The Employment Solicitor to anyone seeking employment law guidance. The combination of expert legal knowledge, emotional intelligence and professional integrity is genuinely valued. This firm has clearly earned its reputation and strong client satisfaction ratings through consistent delivery of service that treats clients as people, not mere cases.
