Having been made redundant under very difficult circumstances and at an awful time personally I was unsure of where to turn.
I could not be more pleased that I was lucky enough to find Lindsey who, after initially I initially spoke to her for advice, would over the next 18 months go on to be a constant source of support.
During very challenging times with plenty of twists and turns it was not just Lindsey’s professionalism that shone through but also the feeling that she genuinely cared for my wellbeing.
Having someone in your corner you can count on and trust is absolutely invaluable under the circumstances and I cannot speak highly enough of Lindsey. I would without hesitation recommend if you are unfortunate enough to find yourself in a similar situation.

I contacted Lindsey Knowles at Brabners on the recommendation of a family member who Lindsey has represented. I was not disappointed, Lindsey listened, understood the challenges I faced with my employer immediately, took control of the situation and brought it quickly to a very satisfactory solution. I would not hesitate to recommend her services to anyone needing support when dealing with their employers.

During the whole process, Lindsey was infallible; preparing and presenting the case brilliantly prior to the deadline which was swiftly heading into an undoubtedly busy Christmas period.
In addition to her wonderful work ethic, she also provided me with many useful pieces of advice; encouraging me to check my existing policies and coverage to see what support I was entitled to. It was through this research that I discovered my Home Insurance Policy also covered employment matters and would accept all costs from that stage onwards.
The importance of Lindsey’s expertise and sage counsel was immeasurable.
The case eventually took place at Tribunal and, much to my happiness and relief, was successfully concluded. On the day, Lindsey and her team once again conducted themselves with the utmost professionalism – going above and beyond provide support and guidance.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Lindsey and her Company to anyone requiring legal assistance.
