I was recommended Joanne via a friend of my brother’s for a potential employment matter. Joanne was excellent. Calm and laser focused, she guided me through the process, fought my corner with sharp and unanswerable points and reached for me, a successful conclusion.

Settlement agreement advice
I engaged Myerson to review and advise on an employment settlement agreement. I was very impressed with the level of technical knowledge provided by Joanne. She was a pleasure to deal with, always available to call or email and efficient in chasing the other party for outstanding replies. Overall a first class service and I would not hesitate to use Myerson again.

Professional Advisors
Right from my initial contact, I was provided with relevant impartial advice helping me to assess the way forward in my case. Using both her legal experience and knowledge of how settlement agreements progress, Jo was able to put forward alternative proposals that ultimately produced an improved outcome on my behalf.
