Thank you very much for all your help and patience with me, and believing that I had a justifiable case. As I said earlier, I wanted to give them a headache and I think we have achieved that. Best of wishes and good luck to yourself and April.

Julianne Hammond, 15 July 2016

Thanks so much for everything you have done for me Neil, Tracey and I really appreciate it. I know who to recommend if any of my family or friends have employment issues. All the best Ian.

Ian Garner

A friend recommended me to Neil's services having heard of him through her own employer. I was in a very difficult work situation and feeling quite anxious as a result. He listened over the phone; came to a meeting with me where he also listened effectively; carefully summarised the situation and the options succinctly and helped me to work through the pros and cons of each of them.

I was able to come to a common sense outcome with my employer with Neil's support, and would recommend him as knowledgeable, thorough and caring.

I would be happy to recommend using Neil as a specialist employment lawyer.

Neil uses a powerful combination of empathy and legal know-how to deliver a service that is focussed on the individual, whilst giving an extremely professional service. His approach is therefore different from many solicitors that I have met working in the field of employment law. This gives him a completely fresh approach with which to develop his business. I wish him every success.

Robin Hills, Director; E14 Change

I have known Neil for a couple of years during which I have referred a number of potential clients to him for advice on employment law issues. I like to think that I provide excellent client care to my clients and it is therefore extremely important to me that they receive the same service from whomever I refer to. The feedback from clients who have sought advice from Neil, is that he is very professional, courteous and sympathetic and that his technical expertise has been sound. I have no hesitation in continuing to refer to Neil and would highly recommend his services.

Lisa Kemp, Family Law Solicitor/Partner, Dennison Greer Solicitors

Neil is extremely knowledgeable with a wealth of experience in his field. He is also very human, which makes him a great person to work alongside. I am always happy to recommend his services and; heaven forbid I should need it; would be very proud to have him represent me!

Heidi Dawson Managing Director, Pathways Coaching Ltd

I want to offer my gratitude to Neil for helping me through what was a very difficult time for me. Now all that is in the past I can move forward from this to bigger and better things. My sincerest thanks.

Mr Coombes recently handled my employment tribunal claim from start to finish. I would fully recommend him to look at and attempt to resolve any employment issues that you may have. Over seven months he was professional, punctual and showed considerable knowledge and insight into the subject matter. Very happy with his work.

Neil,

I felt that I should write a letter of thanks to you following your support with my employment case against my previous employer. Despite a 12 year career in recruitment, I had not experienced unfair dismissal before. I was very uncertain how to approach the situation, despite having already contacted ACAS who can only offer a summary of the position.

I had turned to the internet for advice and I had even contemplated paying for a quick judgment online, but I saw your advert in the Huddersfield Examiner. Having rung on an evening and left a voicemail, I had not expected an immediate call back; your prompt and very reassuring approach helped to put things into perspective. Throughout the whole process, I felt supported and in control of each decision. Something which I understand from friends, is very unusual in these circumstances.

I hope that no friend of mine finds themself in a situation similar to mine, but if they did, I would recommend you without hesitation.

Many thanks

Louise Goody

Dear Neil,

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all your work over the last 12 months in representing me throughout the claim for unfair dismissal.

As complete novices to this area of law, Jim and I have been equally appreciative of your knowledge and professionalism as we have of your compassionate and friendly manner. Your subtle direction left us feeling involved and entirely comfortable with the decisions made along the way. Together these made the daunting and somewhat drawn-out process of pursuing a claim so much more bearable.

This assured yet affable approach was nowhere more evident and effective than at the tribunal hearing, where your calm support, almost understated presentation, precise questioning, and expert summing up of the case, gave us great confidence and reassurance that we have given this process our very best shot, and that everything that could possibly have been done, has been done.

Whatever the outcome, I could not have hoped for better advice or representation for my particular needs. We would wholeheartedly recommend you and your services to anyone in a similar position, and with fingers crossed, wish you every success in the future. Your sincerely,

Ann Anderton and Jim Anderton
