They assisted me with a termination contract. They sorted everything in just a couple of days and kept me informed along the process. They called me and emailed me when necessary, and I had a very positive experience.

Excellent, Clear, and, Efficient Service for Settlement Agreements

5

I contacted Poole Alcock for help with a settlement contract. The process started during the recent festive period, when most businesses were closed, and the signature deadline was soon in the new year.

I got an appointment for the first day back at work in the new year. Irini took my case (along with assistance from Kellie), and we had a meeting where all the clauses within the contract were explained to me, along with their implications. In the process, a clause that needed amendment was picked up that would have meant I would be in breach of contract upon signature. Irini handled the entire background conversation with my employer about having that clause amended successfully. After the corrections, I was able to sign and complete the process by the deadline.

I would wholeheartedly recommend Poole Alcock and, more specifically, Irini and Kellie if anyone needs assistance with settlement agreements.
