Eleanor operates as a true partner rather than an external adviser, bringing thoughtful, pragmatic and impact-driven support. She takes the time to understand the organisation and its constraints, translating this into advice that is commercially grounded, people-centred, and clear even in complex situations; balancing pace with care and never losing sight of the human impact.”

Quite frankly Oliver is the best employment lawyer I worked with throughout my 20+ year career. He is patient, knowledgeable, practical and articulate. His knowledge is second to none and I have no hesitation recommending him to all my clients as he is the best. Oliver is an asset to the profession and I'm looking forward to many more years of being able to pull on his expertise to support my clients.”

Oliver has provided employment updates for the Acas conciliation team regularly. The information he shares is always insightful and very relevant. Oliver explains difficult concepts clearly and has improved my knowledge. His sessions are very popular with over a hundred colleagues attending every time and others listening to the recording. They have been wonderful value for money. I have no doubt that what he says has been passed on and has improved the understanding of many individuals and employers which we deal with in conciliation, by advisers and on our website. Thank you Oliver for continuing to provide these sessions for us we really appreciate what you have done.”

Siobhan Brown,
Human Resources Director
Oliver has been providing employment law advice to our organisation for many years. His guidance is consistently clear, practical, and tailored to our needs, and I greatly value his responsiveness and reliability. In addition to his advisory role, Oliver delivered an excellent training session to our Staff Representative Group on the responsibilities and effectiveness of elected Staff Representatives. The session was well-structured, engaging, and received outstanding feedback from participants. Oliver’s expertise and ability to communicate complex topics in an accessible way have been invaluable to us.”

As I was going through the redundancy process I wasn't sure what the next steps would need to be or how to navigate them. Oliver was extremely helpful with his knowledge and guidance, and was understanding at a stressful time. I would highly recommend his services to anyone going through the same process.”
