“I have referred clients to Lee on a number of occasions when they have needed the expertise of an employment lawyer to deal with issues such as Compromise Agreements and Employment Tribunal claims. On every occasion I have received very complimentary feedback about Lee’s helpful and pragmatic approach. I personally find Lee to be very helpful and supportive. Whilst he always provides excellent support and advice when there is a problem to be managed, I have found particular value where he has provided assistance to try to prevent issues turning into problems. I will continue to recommend Lee to my clients whenever I believe he can be of assistance to them.”
