Highly Recommend

5

I cannot recommend Kathryn a more highly. I felt very fortunate to have her on my side. She is a credit to her profession and I am most grateful to her for helping me through a very difficult time and getting the outcome she did. Along with her colleague Natalie, in her absence, they secured a settlement for me professionally, quickly and efficiently. Thank you.

Outstanding communication and commitment

5

This was my first time needing a solicitor and I couldn't have asked for a better experience working with Kathryn Hirst and her team. My case was handled extremely well with consistent communication, transparency, and commitment to get everything completed in the short amount of time we were working with, often dedicating time outside of core hours to action any outstanding responses. I would highly recommend this team if you are looking for solicitors with expert knowledge in Employment Law, you won't regret it.

A truly professional and understanding solicitor

Kathryn was reccomended by a professional friend.
The expiriance from start to finish was very good indeed.
Everything was very clearly explained so I understood the way forward and any options that needed to be considered.
Communication from the team was clear factual and received in a timely manner.
Very pleased with the overall expirance.

making a difference

5

I have collaborated and worked with Kathryn now for over 7 years and in that time I have found her to be uniquely qualified in leading a team and offering first class commercial and employment legal services. Her ability to build long lasting relationships is fundamentally at the heart of what she advocates. I enjoy working with Kathryn and would confidently highly recommend her services and would encourage you to be part of her network. Her colourful personality and overall approach is very infectious.
