Redundancy
Excellent advice and representation from start to finish, with brilliant communication throughout. Ben was fantastic, immediately understood my situation and the outcome I was looking for, and his strategy in achieving it was spot on. Would not hesitate to recommend him.

Breaking up is hard to do
A business break-up, when equal partners (don’t ever do that btw) don’t see eye to eye, can be more troubling and traumatic than a marriage break-up.
To get through it you need someone in your corner who will help you roll with the punches and counter with deadly precision.
So, if you’re in need of a great cornerman, I happily recommend Ben Palmer of ISON Harrison

Excellent service.
Ben Palmer steered us through a very frustrating 30 months. He gave us good clear advice and helped us every step of the way, passing us over to Daniel Allison to complete the corporate element of our matter.
We would highly recommend Ison Harrison and in particular Ben Palmer and Daniel Allison.
We wouldn’t hesitate to engage them again should the need arise.

Professional and Experienced Solicitors
I recently appointed IsonHarrison to represent me in an employment matter. They professionally and capably provided expert advice and services and the matter was brought to a positive conclusion.
Throughout the process they were extremely good to engage with, demonstrated seasoned legal knowledge and were available to help whenever required, even if that was out of normal working hours.
I am very happy to recommend IsonHarrison to anyone who needs similar legal assistance.

Very approachable and helpful
In the very difficult situation I found myself in, the IH team was very understanding and helpful. On occasion, while waiting for actions from the other party, IH tried to keep me as updated as possible.

Excellent Employment Law Advice
Ben clearly presented us with a number of options that helped us to navigate changes in the way we contract staff to more accurately reflect the working relationship. A sensible, practical and pragmatic approach, and open, honest and timely communications. Great to work with.
