I received excellent service and attention in a very caring way from Caroline and the team at Rollits Solicitors at a stressful time in my career. Caroline supported me and was very helpful making my whole settlement agreement process a simple and uncomplicated experience using her significant knowledge of employment law. She ensured I got the best possible outcome in a timely way. I was very impressed by the whole team approach and can thoroughly recommend Caroline and Rollits service 100%. I know which solicitors I will use in the future. Thank you, Caroline.

"Despite the recent challenging times and the impact on working remotely, the team have always managed to maintain a high level of service, if a member of the team is not going to be available then they inform the client beforehand and all other members are briefed on the needs of the client. Furthermore certain members of the team always make themselves available to ensure continuity of process for clients. A great team in every way."
