Employment mutual separation agreement

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.

Help with redundancy process

I am very grateful for the help I have received from this company and its solicitors (especially Mr. J. Eden). I was very stressed going trough an unfair treatement at work and redundancy process. Mr. Eden took my case and delt with all the issues I was facing during this hard time. He was very professional, kind and friendly, he helped me to negotiate a good agreement with my employer, and also was able to advice me on many matters, and contact my company on my behalf anytime I needed. I received amazing help and reasurance and I can highly recomend this company to everybody facing such hard circumstances as I was. I would not have managed without this help. I appreciate a lot that I found such dedicated people who I could not only trust but more over, who trusted and believed me and who were able to defend me when I needed it the most. Very professional and reliable team of people, very helpful, very dedicated and honest. You made me believe in justice again.
Thank you! thank you! thank you!

Excellent Service

I was recommended to DPH by a colleague when going through redundancy in late 2024. My case was handled by John McConkey and the service he provided was excellent. He was able to ascertain several legal issues and problems with the way my redundancy had been handled by the company I worked for. John was able to get me a much-improved offer and terms as part of my leaving package. I would highly recommend John and DPH to anyone going through redundancy or facing any other employment law issues.

Professional, super fast and friendly!

I needed a solicitor to take me through a redundancy document.

I spoke to Rachel Evans, she was extremely quick to respond, explained everything in my language (non-legal) and completed the matter within a day.

I hadn’t quite appreciated how super easy this would be and how professional and understanding Rachel was.

I really cannot fault the service whatsoever. Fantastic. Thank you.

I had the pleasure of engaging with John at DPH recently to close out a severance agreement. John is incredibly knowledgeable, very experienced and whilst being totally professional is able to think on a personal scale which is, in my opinion, essential when dealign with topics like this. Not that I want to have to need John's services ever again, but if I did, I wouldn't hesitate to get in contact.
