‘A very strong practice in employment law. They have efficient processes for onboarding new clients, dealing with payments and managing through each case.’
‘I worked primarily with Naomi Greenwood. Her expertise and advice were phenomenal from the initial phone call onwards. Her recommended course of action from the initial call was carried out and yielded an excellent result for me as the client.’
‘Competent and client focused.'
‘Clear, practical advice is always given on a timely basis. I've particularly enjoyed working with Cathal McCabe and David Ludlow.’
‘Their experience with employment law and their ability to get to a solution quickly. The team were very quick to meet with me initially and made provision for video calls instead of meeting in their office, which made it much easier on me as the client to fit in calls without having to take significant time off.’
‘David Ludlow stood out for both his empathy and his no-nonsense approach. I’m sure he’d heard a million stories like mine, but he was never dismissive or ‘bored’ by it all.'
‘We have been really impressed by some of the events Moore Barlow have put on. The mock tribunal day was fantastic, and we learned so much from it. To see how a tribunal could play out, using real barristers was fascinating and helped us deepen our understanding of potential pitfalls that could affect a tribunal outcome.'
'Naomi has been a wonderful support to me in my role as Head of HR, she makes herself easily available and adapts her approach to the outcome we are looking for. Thanks to Naomi, settlement resolution has been efficient and we have been very happy with outcomes.'
