Testimonials

  • I would like to say how grateful I am to Capital Law for helping me achieve the desired outcome in my constructive unfair dismissal claim against my previous employer. Nina is an excellent communicator and the deadlines for each aspect of the process were clearly laid out from the start. I really felt that Nina was my advocate as she had a clear grasp on what had happened to me. I was very impressed with Nina’s attention to detail throughout and how readily available she was to discuss issues by email and telephone. I would like to thank Nina for her hard work and professionalism, which ultimately achieved a settlement that I was happy with.

  • I just wanted to thank you for the tremendous win you achieved for Dr Ranson recently.

    I am incredibly grateful for the work you did, picking this case up at short notice, and over Christmas, and turning it around in short order to achieve the most high-profile whistleblower win the BMA has secured in many years, and perhaps ever.

    We owe you a huge debt of gratitude, of that I am certain.
