HR legal advice & support

5

We subscribed to the firm's ongoing HR legal support package and have not regretted the decision at all. Andrew Buckley is a consummate professional. He has worked very flexibly in response to our changing needs over time and his support and advice has always been clear, concise and unequivocal. I could not recommend his service more highly.

Excellent Service

5

I contacted woodfines in regards to an Employment Matter, the receptionist put me straight through to Andrew Buckley who booked me a Teams appointment with his self within a few days. The whole process was easy from start to finish including uploading my ID and finishing with signing documents electronically. When I spoke with Andrew he was very professional, approachable, clear, knowledgable and put me at ease. He gave me great advice and always kept me updated on the matter. I would highly recommend Andrew Buckley from woodfines.

Management of employment tribunal

5

Andrew and his team helped us through an employment tribunal case. The service and advice we received was exemplary throughout. Andrew is incredible honest and straight forward to deal with. We knew exactly where we were at all times and whenever we need to talk to him he was always available. In addition he linked us in to an exceptional barrister who was equally as professional. There was nothing to criticise and I cant recommend Andrew highly enough.

Excellent Settlement Agreement Advice

I required advice regarding a Settlement Agreement and a friend recommended Andrew Buckley. He was very knowledgeable and professional, and when we first spoke he immediately put my mind at ease, which took the stress out of the situation. The matter was dealt with quickly, efficiently and satisfactorily. So, I can not fault the service provided.
