Utmost professionalism and Lauren took the time to explain everything and the steps that would be followed. Communication was superb, and everything was handled with pace. A very stressful time, vacant a lot calmer and straight forward thanks to the dealings with Rothera Bray and in particular Lauren Kilbride.

Rothera Bray Solicitors have been fantastic looking after my case and I've found them to be totally professional in they way they've looked after me. George has been brilliant taking me through everything. I would use Rothera Bray again for sure.

I had a really positive experience with George. He was friendly, approachable and explained everything clearly throughout the process, which made a stressful situation much easier to navigate. He took the time to answer all of my questions, gave me clear and realistic advice, and successfully negotiated an improved settlement on my behalf. Communication was always quick and helpful, even advising me on his days off and I felt well supported from start to finish. I would definitely recommend George to anyone needing employment law advice.

Really positive from my initial phone enquiry to 1st meeting, the whole team at Rothera Bray was extremely supportive and offered guide guidance throughout my situation with regards to a settlement agreement I needed advice on. It was a very difficult situation and in the end a positive result was achieved, giving me some additional benefits to which I was originally offered. I phoned a few companies in Nottingham originally to get support and Rothera Bray by far made me feel the most at ease and it was an easy decision and fast turnaround to get the result I wanted.
