I instructed Paul to represent me in a dispute with my former employer. I had been employed by that organisation for more than 20 years and had, until the dispute, a good working relationship with my employer. This dispute therefore came as an enormous and distressing shock to me. A colleague recommended Paul to me and I’m incredibly glad that they did.
I immediately found Paul to be calm, clear and extremely knowledgeable, in short, exactly the representation I needed in a time of great worry for me. He set out my options and the steps required to achieve each. He proved to be an outstanding and tenacious negotiator with my former employer and advocated for me brilliantly. Paul’s advice was measured and he ensured that my expectations of any outcome were realistic.
Paul and I ended our professional relationship at the conclusion of the ACAS conciliation process. However, shortly thereafter, Paul contacted me and encouraged me to take my case further, representing myself. I will be forever grateful that he did so as I had a successful outcome. Paul did not have to contact me at the point at which I was no longer instructing him, and the very fact he did is, in my view, testament to his care and concern for his clients.
I will continue to be thankful for having Paul’s representation at such a tough period and I would not hesitate to recommend his services to anyone.
