Our Story
The Employment Solicitor opened its doors in November 2015.
From day one our objective was to create an organisation which was modern and client focused, providing employment law services nationally. We set about creating a business which offered specialised and quality service with flexibility and style – something not always readily available within the legal profession.
Within a very short time of trading, our feedback and results showed we had something special to offer both employees and employers.
As a result of our different approach being welcomed by so many, our growth has been unprecedented. We do not chase recognition within the legal profession and instead measure our success by the feedback and the results that we achieve for our clients.
We only employ people with passion and drive to contribute towards our incredible journey.
So far, our client feedback and results speak for themselves: just read our testimonials to see for yourself.
Our Mission
We believe that it is important that every person and business should understand who they are and what they want from life. The Employment Solicitor is made up of a collection of individuals who have a drive and passion to do things differently.
We choose to be client and brand focused. We use our expert skills to provide services in a way which best suits the client and not the solicitors. We want to remove financial barriers to accessing services for both employers and employees and, most importantly, we want to be recognised for our efforts in forcing change within the legal profession.
We are a new breed of employment solicitors.

What our clients say about us…
We work exceptionally hard for clients and as a result receive fantastic feedback. If you scroll across you can read for yourself just a few of the many testimonials we receive.
“you are very people centred. In fact your outlook reminds me of Michelle Obama’s philosophy that life isn’t about how much money you make, it’s about the difference you make… and I don’t suppose you’ll find many clients saying that about their solicitor!”
“Thank you so much for your expert advice in my employment matter. You gave me the courage to move on and away from a terrible situation that I was never going to be able to control. You made me feel powerful in a situation where I thought I was powerless and I am so grateful for that.
What a wonderful introduction to your fantastic practice.”
“Impressive, prompt, thorough first class professional service which is very client focused delivering a quality service with positive results – would definitely recommend”
“I would not hesitate to recommend The Employment Solicitor to any individual who needs sound legal advice and support and will always be grateful to them for services rendered.”
“A huge thank you to The Employment Solicitor for their hard work and support during my employment tribunal. They worked tirelessly and with integrity throughout. For me though – the most important thing was their honesty…”
“My faith in the legal profession has been fully restored thanks to the service I received…”
“A dispute between employee and employer is something which I’d hoped I would never have to endure. The effect it had on me was something I had great difficulty in coping with until I was fortunate enough to be introduced to Helen Moore.
Helen has unlimited patience and talked me through the options open to me and then using her vast experience brought my situation to a satisfactory conclusion which exceeded all of my expectations.”
“Being treated unfairly by your employers? that’s how I felt. Helen at The Employment Solicitor came recommended, We met and with her advice, guidance and help, I have come to the end of the process with a good outcome for my situation.
I have no hesitation in recommending The Employment Solicitor and their helpful polite staff.”
