Professional, helpful and courteous throughout.
From start to finish, Joanne was professional and exactly what I needed.
I’d never needed to use a solicitor for an employment reason before, but unfortunately the time came and I was recommended to Joanne by a former colleague.
I can now see why. Professional from word go and never overpromising, everything was kept understandable and straightforward for a legal luddite like myself.
Reasonable and caring through the entire process I felt as though I was important and was treated with respect.
Everything was completed in a timely manner and I was able to contact her at any reasonable time to discuss things.

Fantastic legal support
I had a Settlement Agreement which Jo not only managed to improve but was also very knowledgeable regarding the expectations that could be achieved. She explained the agreement details very clearly and suggested options to amend it. She also insisted on changes to the wording to protect my interests. This was all completed in a timely manner to expediate the process and thus reduce the stress of the situation. Thanks for everything Jo.

SMITH MAY SOLICITORS LLP REVIEW
From the onset, I was very impressed with Joanne’s approachable manner, commitment, knowledge, professionalism, and supportive nature. She is meticulous and I found her incredibly responsive to all my queries and was always a phone call or email away. Including face-to-face at short notice. Never once, did I feel on my own in what felt a daunting experience through a difficult time. I felt reassured that I was in safe hands throughout the process. I received clear, concise, and timely communication. The service provided is exemplary and second to none. Joanne is a credit to her firm and I would not hesitate to recommend Smith May Solicitors to anyone. Thank you again.
