Quick advice
I was after some high level guidance on a particular topic to see if I had a case to raise an objection and seek further more detailed legal advice. Simon was quick and clear in his response to help steer me on if I could do anything next. It was much appreciated.

Redundancy Advice
Based on internet reviews I chose Hutchison Thomas and found the service and advice given by Simon Thomas to be excellent. From my initial enquiry to the end of the advice the responses were promptly dealt with and Simon took time to ensure I was understanding of the situation. I'd recommend this firm and would use again.
