Our client testimonials

“When you’re seeking legal counsel relating to employment law there’s a decent chance you need someone in your corner who not only gives you excellent legal advice, but also supports and emboldens you to fight for fair treatment from an employer. Philomena is one of those people we gravitate to when we need clarity and certainty. On top of that, her humanity and compassion always left me feeling lighter and more positive as I dealt with a difficult situation.”

Client, 2024

“Over the festive period a member of my family needed swift and critical employment advice. From the moment I made contact with SE and my phone call was transferred to Angela I felt in safe hands… Angela then organised at very short notice a telephone call meeting with Philomena… At the phone call meeting Philomena was an absolute star. Philomena listened and made my family member feel at ease during what is a very turbulent situation. Philomena explored lots of avenues and options, was considerate, calm, professional and empathetic. Through Philomena’s guidance and thoughtful phrasing it helped my family member see clear options… Having met and worked with many lawyers I was extremely impressed with Philomena and more importantly Philomena was able to help my family member to get to a point where she could think more clearly and take action. Philomena made her self available at very short notice. Thank you to both these wonderful individuals.”
