Employment Tribunal Case
I had the pleasure of working with Nicholas, Alex, and several other members of the firm over the course of three years. Their advice was consistently measured, well-balanced, and delivered with a collaborative approach. Nicholas provided exceptional representation, demonstrating not only a deep understanding of the law as a solicitor but also a strong barrister-level expertise. The team was highly responsive, addressing any issues promptly and handling complex, challenging matters with professionalism and pragmatism. I truly appreciate their dedication and expertise—thank you for securing a fantastic outcome.

Experts
Not only did I receive expert legal opinion from the firm of Thomas Mansfield, but the firm agreed to advise on the appropriate course of action regarding a claim which was comparatively small in financial terms, but involving important matters of principle. In particular, Alex handled my case personally throughout, guiding it to a successful settlement. I am most grateful for his assistance.
