A national law firm with headquarters in Cheshire is among the most trusted in the UK for employment law.
Poole Alcock ranked fourth nationally out of almost 3,300 employment law providers and sixth out of 4,753 for all law firms providing company and commercial law, according to a review by trusted law site Review Solicitors.
The firm, which has seven Cheshire offices and a presence in major cities, including London, Manchester and Birmingham, says success is a result of providing tailored services and actively listening to feedback from clients.
Jamie Riseley, Employment Law Partner at Poole Alcock, said: “Every client is different and we reflect this in how we work with them. I believe success comes down to ensuring each client gets tailored advice that meets a specific need and when we have worked with companies, we actively encourage feedback. Listening to customers is vital to growing a successful service.
Poole Alcock has a head office at Gadbrook Park, Northwich, but Jamie is based at the Dowery, Barker Street, Nantwich, alongside solicitor Emily Muncey. He added: “The rankings are predominantly dependent on customer reviews and are therefore something I am extremely proud of. We set out to form a partnership with our clients – we are the opposite of a conveyor belt service churning out one size fits all advice.”
Jamie’s team handle all aspects of employment law, such as settlement agreements, restrictive covenants, employment tribunals, disciplinary hearings, unfair dismissal cases, discrimination, redundancy and bullying and harassment allegations.
Poole Alcock also offers a package called HR Assist which offers unlimited support from the employment law team for a monthly retainer. This provides support with a range of matters including training, contracts of employment, key documents and policies and procedures.
Review Solicitors ranking results are based predominantly on the reviews collected from clients in the last 12 months on the Review Solicitors’ website, but consider a law firm’s accreditations, experience, size, notable cases, Legal Ombudsman and disciplinary records.
