Employment law and HR advice

Visuality have used Wilkin Chapman for all our legal needs over the last two or three years. Over this period, they have advised us on a range of issues, taking in employment questions, GDPR, directors’ affairs and contracts, Terms & Conditions, and commercial disputes. In all instances, their advice has been prompt, succinct, relevant, commercial and, above all, helpful.

Wilkin Chapman have provided professional, expert, employment law advice for Care Plus Group for over ten years, and previously to our predecessor organisations. The advice that is provided is always within a timely manner and responds to the specific needs of our organisation. Having built up an excellent working relationship the needs of our business, aims and ethics are thoroughly understood and we work in a true partnership way to achieve the required outcome. The matters that are being dealt with are often sensitive and contentious and the advice provided is always given in a professional, friendly and supportive manner.

Maria Tomkinson, Care Plus Group

At Pennells Garden Centre we moved from another provider to Wilkin Chapman around 2 years ago. We had felt that our previous provider failed to understand our business correctly, they had lost their personal touch and their advice was simply not good enough.

Having moved to the local Wilkin Chapman branch we have found Katie Davies and her team to be professional, quick and understand our needs and business issues much more thoroughly which then ensured we made decisions with clarity. Katie and her team have been particularly helpful in navigating our way through Covid and its many different effects on employment law.

Will Pennell, Pennells Garden Centres

We have been clients of Wilkin Chapman for over a decade and in recent years have developed a strong working relationship with the employment division. Katie has been an invaluable support to our Company on an array of topics that we have tasked her with. We have always found Katie and the rest of the team to be extremely professional but they also take the time to understand your needs to ensure you receive the service that is most appropriate for your business.

I would recommend Wilkin Chapman to anyone who is looking for support or guidance from a team who take a proactive approach in making sure you, as the client, is well-informed to be able to make the right decisions for your business.

We look forward to many more years of working with Wilkin Chapman.

Sarah Harvey, L J Fairburn & Son Ltd

We have used the services of Wilkin Chapman for a number of years to assist us with employment law matters. Their support has always been exemplary – a friendly and responsive team, who offer a professional yet pragmatic approach to problems. I cannot speak highly enough of their services.

June Wass, Nippon Gases UK Limited

We have worked with Wilkin Chapman for our HR needs since 2019 and our experience so far has been very positive. Their very experienced team have helped us through a couple of very difficult issues and at every stage, we felt supported, and more importantly, confident that we were doing the right thing.

We had worked with a larger corporation before, but we felt that their priority was to minimise their risks rather than supporting us as employers.

We have developed a strong working relationship with Wilkin Chapman, more specifically Katie and Tracy who tend to look after us and appreciate their professional and pragmatic approach to HR.

Mercedes Mello-Jenkins, Freshney Green Limited

We have been clients of Wilkin Chapman for over 10 years, we cannot recommend them enough. Whenever we have a problem we are supplied with sound advice in an empathetic and understanding manner very quickly. We feel they are always on our side and have our best interests at heart.

Practice Manager, Glendair Dental

We have used the services of Wilkin Chapman for HR legal issues for a few years. They support us through some very difficult situations with a friendly, knowledgeable and responsive service. They greatly reduce our stress levels which gives us more confidence to deal with HR problems.

Angela Reeves, Practice Manager GP Surgery (NHS)

After growing frustrated with a ‘one size fits all’ approach from our provider, we decided to move our HR provision to that of a more personal approach from Wilkin Chapman. Katie, Tracy and the wider Wilkin Chapman employment team have taken the time to understand our business and the challenges we face to ensure we receive the best advice for the situation. The team are extremely knowledgeable, proactive, friendly and professional, and we have been extremely happy with the invaluable support and advice we have received over the last 3 years. They have given us confidence to improve our HR processes and ensure that what we do and how we do it is correct. I highly recommend Wilkin Chapman employment team for their outstanding HR advice and guidance.

Freshney Pelham Care Ltd

I just wanted to say thank you so much to Teresa for all the support with the employment law updates and webinars over the past few months. They’ve been extremely insightful and helpful throughout this challenging time. It’s been great to see local businesses come together and support each other.

DoubleTree by Hilton, Lincoln

Many thanks for a first class service, will recommend yourself to any one who requires any services.

Client D

Very many thanks for all the help that you’ve given us over the past weeks with resolving the problems we've had. We really do appreciate your professionalism, expertise, and all the effort you have put in to helping us again. Without your help we feel sure that the company would have given an even less generous offer than you were able to extract from them!

We will not hesitate to use the services of Wilkin Chapman again in the future, nor in recommending you to other people.

Client A

I would just like to say a big “Thank You” for sorting out our employment contracts and staff handbook. You have taken a combination of thrown together snippets of information and turned it into a contract and handbook which far better suits our needs, better protects the company and you’ve also simplified things in the process. 

 
I would not hesitate to recommend your services to anyone else looking to review their employee contracts or handbooks. 
 

LCS IT Solutions

Oliver was professional in every way; kind, courteous, patient, understanding, hardworking, conscientious, reliable and an astute listener.  He was recommended by an acquaintance of which I will be eternally grateful.  I felt secure in Oliver's handling of my case.

Mrs G

Your advice enabled me to make a strong case and resolve the situation with the outcome I wanted. Thank you for your advice.

Client H

Laura was a pleasure to work with and fitted in well socially in an unfamiliar environment, which is always important when working abroad. Most importantly, however, she was a professional asset. I very much appreciated Laura’s legal knowledge and also her creativity in suggesting some possible solutions to a problem which I had not thought of. She was not afraid to get involved in our business meetings and she made a significant contribution. She also seems to have rapidly assimilated many of the political and constitutional issues that have to shape our work in Bosnia.

Piers Westlake, Senior Consultant, Agencia Consulting Ltd

We enjoy working with you as we appreciate the straight speaking, the fact that we receive a response so promptly, and that we don't have to pussyfoot in relation to outcomes.

The relationship between us and you and your colleagues has been quite defining as it has enabled us to move in the direction we want to be heading. Long may it continue.

Wendy Hanslip, School Business Manager, Grange Primary School

We have been working with Wilkin Chapman since 2010 after one of our clients recommended them to us.

To begin with we worked with Katie Davies for all our employment law requirements but as the years have gone on we now use Wilkin Chapman for all our business needs.

We could not be happier with the service we receive and would highly recommend them to anyone who requires legal services.
