Contract review

“I would highly recommend Patrick!

Patrick advised me when I was being made redundant, making sure I was aware of my rights and advocated for me in all communications with my company. He came across very professional, trustworthy and knowledgeable and I would choose him and his excellent service all over again.”

Employment

“Patrick et al were an absolute send! The advice given was clear and concise. Just what was needed as I was trying to negotiate my new job and needed to understand the employment contract jargon from my outgoing position. Patrick was responsive and very efficient which helped me move on with the matter in a timely fashion. Would highly recommend without hesitation.”

Advice on post-termination restrictions and enforcement

“I was recently made redundant, and my company had handled some of the process quite poorly. Patrick came recommended by a friend who had used him during her own redundancy, and I can now wholeheartedly recommend him myself.

His initial consultation was thorough and helpful and clear. He was practical, realistic, and detailed in advising me of likely outcomes. When my former company’s tactics were less than pleasant during the exit negotiations, Patrick was persistent and professional. Even when I thought all hope was lost he still managed to get me a better deal and get amendments to the settlement agreement that ensure I was protected going forward.

He was quick to reply, a great advocate for me and my case, as well as being personable and kind during a time when I was extremely anxious and my self esteem was at an all time low.

I am very grateful to him for his hard work and would have recommended his services even if the outcome had not improved.”
