Great Employment Advice and Representation
I was a senior manager in a well known regional company and I instructed Dean Parnell to advise me on a settlement agreement that had been put forward by my employer. As a result of Dean's negotiations the company doubled their original offer to me and all of Dean's legal fees were paid by the company. An outstanding result by an outstanding lawyer!

Excellent
My unfortunate experience started August 15th 2022 .
I googled employment law as I didn't know a solicitor, Sydney Mitchell popped up and I ended up dealing with Dean Parnell.....
He was so helpful from the start, explained "Legal" stuff and guided me through the the whole process.
We had a great result in the end.
Highly recommended....
