I recently decided to leave my company to take early retirement. As such, I agreed with my HR Director a settlement agreement which would facilitate my exit in a mutually beneficial way. This was highly confidential and backed up with a very ‘wordy’ document from our legal department. At that stage I realised that I needed an employment lawyer, which was a move also strongly encouraged by my company.
I went with Thomas Mansfield solicitors and our lawyer; Julie Goodway was extremely efficient, professional, and hard working. The whole process was very smooth and timely, and concluded without any issues. Julie is super smart and good at her job, whilst at the same time being very warm, friendly and helpful. Whatever your legal needs, big or small, she will walk you through the process, offering proper and ‘real’ advice, and always working in your best interest. Moreover, Julie ensures that your time is maximised and that her fee is realistic and manageable.
Thank you, Julie, for offering me a great service, you are a true asset to Thomas Mansfield, and I cannot recommend you highly enough.

Was a pleasure to have Julie Goodway sorting out my settlement contract, she was very approachable, explained in easy to understand terms and very detailed-oriented. I rarely write reviews and would strongly recommend Julie for settlement related matters.

Advice on Settlement Agreement
I sought Julie's advice during a particularly difficult chapter of my career. Julie's partnership gave me the courage and strength to continue through the most challenging days, and the authority and conviction to present my case in a fair and balanced manner. This resulted in a settlement agreement which helped to provide me with the space to heal and to restore my dignity. In the longer term, this has also meant that I have faith that I will find another employer who will value my skills and experience. I am extremely grateful to Julie for this. Thank you.

Julie Goodway
I recently had the misfortune to be made redundant by my firm and was given a Settlement Agreement for which I needed legal advice. I went to see Julie and was impressed from the start with her professionalism and knowledge of employment law. She was also very easy to talk to and explained the agreement in terms that a layman could understand. She managed to both increase the amount that I was being offered as a payoff and also remove some restrictive clauses in the agreement. I was extremely happy with the service I received from Julie. She was open and honest about every step in the process and I would have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone who requires an expert in employment law.
