I engaged Phil as my lawyer at a time when my workplace had become untenable for me to continue working there. I’d never gone to a lawyer for a work related issue before and was very unsure what options I would even have for exiting my work. Phil made time to see me within a couple of days and the initial meeting was over an hour long. Phil listened and was easy to talk to, he suggested a way forward and possible options that I could take in plain language that I understood. I found Phil was always available to talk or answer my emails, and always contacted me to discuss any new development, his reliability on communication was important for me to feel I had somebody advocating for me.
At a point where there were added complications at my work and I found making a decision difficult, Phil was patient and practical, suggesting I take the weekend to think on things before reaching any decision. The eventual outcome and settlement was exactly what I needed to move on, not just financially but to feel I had some kind of justice in having my voice
heard. I am very grateful to Phil, even just telling him my story was a huge weight off my shoulders. I would highly recommend Phil to anybody who finds themselves in need of some practical legal advice.
