Rachel instantly engaged with me and gave me all the information I needed to make an informed decision.
Being made redundant was such a shock and Rachel guided me through a tough journey, making an awful situation easier than it could otherwise have been.

I cannot express enough how happy I was with the service Rachel Evans provided. Rachel was the first lawyer I spoke to about my case & after speaking to 5 more from other firms I knew she was the right person to go with. She immediately came across like she cared, & took the time to listen to all the details about my situation. She put me at ease & I immediately felt like she had everything under control elevating the stress I was experiencing & giving me the confidence to believe in what I was entitled to. She is a great negotiator & delivers her points clearly & effectively. Would absolutely recommend her & use her services again. Thank you so much Rachel

Ticked every box in what was an urgent matter to resolve. I felt fully supported by DPH Legal's team - they were knowledgeable and very responsive even though it was in the evening.
I would recommend - especially as DPH Legal gave me advice that made me question simply signing the MSA. They were always fair and supported my wishes.

Thank you for your thoughtful review. We're glad Rachel and our team could provide the support and guidance you needed, especially during such an urgent employment matter. We appreciate your trust and recommendation!

I was initially nervous about where to start with navigating a difficult situation, however from our initial call it was a pleasure to work with her. The advice I received was fair, balanced and done in a way that made me feel at ease and assured me that I was in safe hands from start to finish.
Rachel is absolutely someone I'd recommend seeking advice and support from.
