I have been most impressed by Geoffrey Ellis at Thompson and Bancks who acted for me in an employment matter . He arrived prepared for meetings, but took time to listen carefully and checked my understanding regularly. I felt in control but well advised and therefore far less concerned and anxious than I thought I would have been. Excellent knowledge worn lightly and I would definitely recommend.
I also used T&B for conveyancing and found them excellent at that too.

Dilapidations resolution
We engaged T&B to present a dilapidations claim to departing tenants. The advice and guidance was given in a very professional and timely manner, with a satisfactory conclusion being achieved. This is a very specialised field and arguably a 'minefield' but we were guided well.

Settlement agreement
Had an employer's severance package / settlement agreement for review by a solicitor.
Made an appointment with Thomson and Bancks and was assigned to Geoffrey. Geoffrey went through the document and clearly explained each section of it. A very positive experience, under the circumstances.

Exceptional Service
Geoffrey Ellis managed my case exceptionally well. Geoffrey took the time to read all the documentation I sent him in advance of our first meeting. During our first meeting he walked me through the procedure, relevant documentation and the law as it pertained to my case. Everything was explained to me in simple, easy to understand language. Incredibly thorough and professional. An excellent firm that I would recommend highly.
