“Firstly what a professional company. My friend recommended the company and, in particular, Karen Cole. In Ms Cole’s absence, Patrick Simpson returned my email and this is with whom took on my case.

In my first contact, I merely wanted to have a conversation regarding my situation. Patrick was extremely hopeful with honest feedback about my options.

It wasn’t for a few weeks/months later when my employer completely did a 180 on me prompting me to move forward with Patrick and bring a case to my employer.

Patrick has been knowledgeable and thorough throughout this time. He has moved this forward on every occasion and the outcome has been over and above anything I could have hoped for.

I think ‘Joe Public’ tends to feel somewhat nervous around anything legal but Patrick has constantly put me at ease, explained everything and has thought ahead on everything making this an extremely easy process.

I would recommend this company and in particular Patrick Simpson to anyone going through the experiences that I went through.

Thank you again, Patrick.”

Karen and later Patrick were an incredibly supportive team. I found them to be very patient, always willing to explain options, processes etc. The hearing week when stress levels were high for me, they took time to ensure I was support and all my needs met and questions answered. I hope to never go through this process again but if I have to I would go back to them again.”

Patrick Simpson provided first class support when I experienced redundancy. I couldn’t have asked for more. Demonstrating his superior knowledge and experience and explaining everything to me with crystal clarity. Efficient and timely with absolutely no compromise to rigour. I highly recommend to all.”

Mr Rose, April 2024

“The firm acted for me in an employment matter where the issues were as much practical as legal. The advice given was thorough and clear, marrying black letter law to the practicalities. This helped me greatly in achieving a satisfactory outcome.”
