I was very happy with the work Richard did for me, as regards to my company pay off after 25 years service. He kept me informed of what I had to do and the legal side of things, in which I wouldn't have understood. The work was carried out smoothly and within the time frame. I achieved a satisfactory conclusion with the advice given and would highly recommend this company if asked.

Met with Richard during a difficult time after being made redundant. He was very understanding and explained everything clearly to me in what my former employers were offering. He was always there when I needed to contact him.

Richard Lozano provided legal advice on a fairly complex settlement agreement with my employer. Richard's advice was always very clear and he was able to point out a number of potential issues in the initial draft of the settlement agreement. Through Richard we were able to get these resolved quickly and complete the process efficiently and professionally.

Mr Lozano did a fantastic job making me feel at ease with an otherwise unpleasant settlement agreement. He took his time to understand my situation and provided some excellent guidance. While I hope I never require this kind of service again, I wouldn't hesitate to enlist Mr Lozano's, of Taylor Bracewell, legal assistance when needed. Thank you.
