Testimonials
During the Level 4 lockdown, we were faced with an incredibly challenging employment issue. Ross France came highly recommended by a family friend, and throughout the process, he worked tirelessly to help us to resolve the case. Ross showed compassion, empathy and unyielding support, right through to the end. Hilary, Ross’s assistant, was meticulous in her work and as a team, they ensured we were looked after, all the way through the process. We are incredibly grateful to Ross for his genuine support and would highly recommend Ross France to anyone needing legal advice or representation for Employment Resolutions in the future.

Ross France was recommended to me by a friend. He responded quickly to my situation and provided an excellent service with a positive outcome. At all times throughout my dealings with them the communication was top notch, I felt listened to and in good hands. I would definitely recommend Ross France should you require legal assistance with an employment matter.

In very difficult circumstances I was referred to Ross to assist with a personal grievance issue. With many challenges along the way, Ross through his experience and expertise, managed to negotiate the best outcome possible in the circumstances. He is thoroughly professional and I found to be a reassuring voice of reason during a difficult time. Ross was realistic with risks and the options available and a pragmatic outcome was achieved where I am sure others would have failed. The only disappointment is that I didn’t get to meet him under better circumstances. Ross has been fantastic to work with throughout and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ross and his legal services to anyone.
– Richard
Thank you very much for all your time and effort securing the best outcome possible for me. From the quick enquiry I made with you earlier in the year (relating to the same matter) to the mediation action, I had absolute peace of mind that you had my best interests at heart throughout the entire process. You provided me with sound advice and kept me abreast of all communications related to the case at hand. I have been able to move on from this experience happy and satisfied that the best outcome was reached. It was also comforting to know that I had experienced and knowledgeable support during this time, which was difficult for me.
