what our clients say about our employment law advice

"I just can't thank Natalie enough for all her help and guidance, from my initial phone call to Baileyfields right through to the conclusion of my case for unfair dismissal against my company, who had made me redundant, Natalie was always there and always available to help and advise during this very stressful period in my life.

My former company decided to settle on the day of my tribunal and without doubt it was down to Natalie's keen eye for detail etc. that made them realise they were fighting a losing battle. I can now move forward with my life and hope that by bringing this case my former employer will think twice before putting any other of my now ex-colleagues through the same experience."

Mr K Hubbard 04/11/16

"I wanted to write a short email to thank you for your recent help with the review and drafting of the settlement agreement between my former employer and myself. Throughout the process I found Baileyfields to be a highly supportive and professional company.

As you can imagine it is potentially a distressing time in these circumstances but throughout the process I always felt that you were always representing my own interests. The attention to detail and the advice was second to none. I would highly recommend you and your company to anyone who required employment advice."

Mr C Davenport

"I was a senior manager with a major British construction company for 19½ years when I was summarily dismissed for gross misconduct with the charges against me being bullying and harassment. The allegations made against me were in my opinion unsubstantiated. The company HR department and the disciplinary panels did not carry out any investigations on my behalf into the allegations made against me.

I went to the citizens advice bureau, which to be frank was a waste of time, so I contacted Baileyfields solicitors. Although time was short if I was going to tribunal I was called by Ms Natalie Kedge at 7 o’clock in the evening and she stated that after reading my notes that the company in her opinion had a case to answer and a meeting was arranged for the following day. Ms Kedge was the first person during this whole sorry episode to give me words of support. On the second morning of the tribunal the company agreed not to contest the unfair dismissal and I was awarded £70k in compensation. I would have received nothing without the excellent work carried out on my behalf by Baileyfields and cannot thank them enough for the professionalism, support and encouragement accorded to me during what was a very traumatic time."

Mr C M McAllister

"Baileyfields dealt with my case, in an efficient, yet personal manner. Throughout this tough time, there was absolutely no point where I felt out of the loop, or like I wasn't being given the best possible advice. I would happily recommend them, and extended my deepest thanks for all the help they gave me."

Lucy Powell

"In Baileyfields I found professional, sound advice that was expressed in laymans terms. Natalie led and guided me through the whole process, starting with the actions I needed to take whilst still employed. Both my family and I will always be grateful for the tower of strength and voice of reason that Natalie gave us during, what I can only describe as, the most stressful time in our lives. I will be more than willing to provide any reference as to the services that were provided and would highly recommend Baileyfields as a professional and caring company."

Mr Phil Thomas

"I would like to convey my thanks to Baileyfields for their utmost professionalism and integrity given the size of the project. I speak for myself and my team when saying that in terms of a pragmatic and flexible approach, which is much needed in our commercial environment, that dealing with Baileyfields has been a pleasure (rare to say with solicitors !) and would be very happy to use your services again should the need arise"

Wight Salads Group

"When I needed a special Consultancy Contract drawn up, Baileyfields helped me with all the relevant issues. The service was always prompt and it really helps when the client can get through quickly to the right person to discuss details. Where employment law is concerned, I would thoroughly recommend Baileyfields Solicitors."

Martin Wyatt

"Dealing with solicitors can often open up a can of legal jargon that can get extremely confusing. Our representative from Baileyfields cut through this jargon and explained it as it was, in laymans terms. Legal representation of this calibre is hard to find. In Baileyfields we have found a firm that provides a cost effective service delivered within the strictest of time frames. Their understanding of employment law is second to none. I intend to recommend them to other companies within our immediate business community and will offer a verbal or written reference to their effectiveness"

David Archer

"In Baileyfields this Company has found a matter of fact source of sound legal advice commensurate with the precision and attention to detail that the preparation of our products demand of us."
