Claire provided me with a professional efficient service, her employment law knowledge was 2nd to none and she guided me through this process giving me clear advice and kept me informed at all times. She was a pleasure to deal with and I would highly recommend her and her team. Thank you for everything you did to ensure a successful outcome.
