Representation for an Employment Tribunal
My involvement with Slater Heelis started after they acquired Townsneedham, where I’d been working with Alex Barley for several years as a union representative. Under the new management I was eventually assigned Helen Harradine to represent me personally in an Employment Tribunal and I could not have asked for better.
From the very start Helen was professional, engaging and patient. Her ability to translate the process and legal ‘speak’ into language that I could understand was admirable. She was always quick to respond when questions arose with clear and concise answers.
Her orderly and detailed approach to the case, with a constant eye on the available finances, ensured the process remained on schedule and within budget.
Thinking creatively Helen saw an opportunity that hadn’t been considered previously and suggested we explore it. Helens intuitive approach ultimately resulted in a settlement.
She often worked well past her normal hours and on several occasions came in to work on her days off, rearranging child care, to be there for me. I am quite sure without Helens professionalism, dedication and tenacity I would not have got the settlement I received.
Helen is utterly professional, diligent, hardworking and very approachable.
I have been so impressed with Helens work that I have recommend her, through Slater Heelis, to others.
Thank you very much Helen.

An excellent lawyer
Throughout my case and successful tribunal the employment team at Slater Heelis were knowledgeable, communicated very well and promptly, helpful, supportive and informative. I had 3 different solicitors throughout the 3 years of my dealings with Slater Heelis and handovers were always very thorough and seamless, so I never had to bring them up to speed with any aspects of my case, which was greatly appreciated and very reassuring. Helen Harradine’s advice was very considered, appropriate and clear. Her legal submissions were always very well constructed and detailed. She was a delight to work with and very good at making me relax during the tribunal break outs.
