Testimonials – Business Clients

"During the five years in which Astons Solicitors have acted in the Industrial & Employee Relations area for the VGC Group, they have proved themselves to be professional, competent and always attentive in the service & support they provide. We confidently rely on their quality advice and support in these matters."

"Astons were able to provide expert legal knowledge coupled with practical HR Management advice to enable us to find solutions to our problems. As a middle manager it was great to find solicitors that knew HR, not just the law and were happy to explain it and the implications. As I moved organisations I made sure I kept contact with Astons and used them on numerous occasions, all to good effect. Now as a freelance HR Management Consultant I am able to approach Astons not only about Employment Law but I am comfortable seeking guidance on more general HR issues, knowing I will get sound practical advice."

"I have worked with Edward, Robin and the team at Astons for almost 2 years, and I cannot speak more highly of them.  The main thing for me is that they understand my business and can therefore understand all the little nuances which come with it.  They are pragmatic in their approach and always offer advice and guidance in a straight-forward and non-solicitor manner, which makes it easy to relay to my General Managers who are often on the front line dealing with complex issues.  I would certainly recommend Astons to anyone looking for an employment solicitor"

“We have employed the services of Astons Solicitors for several years and we have found their expertise, advice and professionalism to be second to none. Additionally we have found great value in the Employment Protection Scheme they offer. I would have no hesitation in recommending Aston Solicitors’ services to anyone who requires employment law advice.”

"Every time I have been asked for an employment lawyer recommendation, I have without hesitation given Astons' contact details. Robin and Edward 'held my hand' during the immediate aftermath of the credit crunch when we had to make redundancies. They very carefully guided me to ensure that we did everything in accordance with employment law and prevented us from making some very expensive mistakes. Since then, they have completely re-written our employment contracts and drafted our Employee and Management Handbooks. In essence Astons have become our HR department."

“Astons represented Head Entertainment following the acquisition of certain assets from the Administrators of Zavvi. Astons advised us on all employment issues relating to TUPE. Robin kept us up to date and advised us at each step of the way. I have no hesitation in recommending Astons”

A quality service at highly competitive rates.”

"Astons Solicitors have provided us with employment law support for over 15 years. This has covered many different aspects of day to day staff employment issues including recruitment, health & safety, disciplinary and redundancy. We have benefited from discussing issues directly with a specialist and have always received excellent and quick advice. This professional advice has saved us a significant amount of time and money over the years and we have with their help managed to bring sensitive issues to a satisfactory conclusion for all parties."

"Astons Solicitors have helped us through a company reorganisation and the support that we received was second to none. The reorganisation has enabled us to be a much more efficient company in difficult economic times. Their knowledge and expertise continues to support us on an on-going basis and they also keep us regularly updated with any changes in employment law which may apply to us. All of this has been achieved through Astons Employment Protection Scheme and is excellent value for money. I can highly recommend their service as a valuable asset to any business.”
