I worked with Chris and his team on an employment contract when leaving my full time job at a large corporate.
They’ve been incredibly supportive and clear with their communications both with me and my employer.
I would highly recommend them for any employment legal support and advice.

We were introduced to People Legal Limited and particularly Chris McAvoy-Newns by our PEO. Chris and his team, Lauren Beaumont and Georgia Goulding, were extremely knowledgable and responsive when helping us with an employment matter. They quickly gained our trust, provided great counsel and guided us through a process which we were not previously familiar with. The People Legal team provided timely and detailed communications and kept us apprised throughout the engagement.
I cannot recommend Chris, Lauren and Georgia enough. People Legal Limited provided excellent service for a reasonable fee.

I recently engaged People Legal to deal with my redundancy settlement agreement and cannot speak highly enough of their services. From our first interaction, it was clear that I was in capable hands. People Legal demonstrated exceptional professionalism, combined with a deep understanding of employment law, which immediately put me at ease during a challenging time. What stood out most was their ability to explain complex legal terms in a way that was easy to understand, ensuring that I was fully informed at every stage of the process. People Legal was not only thorough but also very approachable and empathetic, making a potentially stressful experience much more manageable. The dedication and attention to detail were evident in the way they negotiated on my behalf. People Legal went above and beyond to ensure that my interests were protected and that I received a fair and satisfactory settlement. I am extremely grateful for the support and guidance provided by People Legal. I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of expert legal assistance with employment matters. Their combination of expertise, professionalism, and personal touch truly sets them apart.
