Sheilah Cummins was really knowledgeable and helpful throughout the process!
Work was carried out in Sept / Oct 2022
Solicitor was brilliant at explaining the process of a settlement agreement and ensuring that I received a fair severance package. Felt I was in safe hands at all times - always available and responded quickly to my questions.

Impeccable work and razor-sharp legal knowledge
As General Counsel of a Canadian based company, I made the decision to engage Prettys to handle our UK Employment Law matters; a decision I am most proud of.
The firm has great depth of knowledge and I have always felt reassured that their team was diversified enough to handle any issue.
The highlight for me is the care and diligence Ms Cummins has provided on all our matters. Her work is impeccable, her legal knowledge is razor-sharp, and she is highly adept at taking independent carriage of a file – a necessity for a firm that requires the handing off of matters to external counsel. I cannot recommend Sheilah and her firm more highly.
