Rachael helped me with a settlement agreement and was friendly and clear when going through the issues at hand.  She suggested some courses of action and when a complication occurred with the other party responded very quickly and resolved the issue straight away. I would be happy to recommend Rachael to anyone looking for advice with employment issues

I have used Astons on two separate occasions to help me conclude a settlement agreement with my employer. Edward is the ideal person to deal with as he quickly gets to the heart of the matter. His professional advice has always been principled and fair, cutting through any emotion that may surround sensitive issues. He is also a really good guy to deal with.

Exiting a business can be an extremely stressful time especially if you have never been in the situation before, in fact even finding a solicitor whom you feel can talk to openly and trust can create a slight feeling of nausea, probably because talking to someone about the situation does in fact make it very real and highlights it is a worrying time.

From the first meeting with Rachael I instantly felt calmer. We discussed my concerns and Rachael was able to start advising me from a legal standpoint on the main issues. Throughout the process Rachel kept me fully up to speed, gave constant advice on even the smaller issues and kept to both timelines and up front budgetary costs.

She made a stressful situation into one that allowed me to exit with dignity and calmness

Having been involved in a number of both redundancy and TUPE procedures in the past I had never been involved in a confidential settlement agreement.

The procedure was explained to me by Mr Edward Aston in both a professional and, importantly, a friendly manner which gave me the confidence to proceed.
