Calm in a crisis. Clear when it counts.
The Effective Law Group has provided clear and cost effective advice. They solved a big headache for me after a former employee sued for unfair dismissal with a claim for disability discrimination as well.
Natasha is very reliable and exhibits a tenacity and attention to detail that one expects but rarely finds. Natasha responded to queries promptly and matters where handled in a very professional manner. I have complete confidence in The Effective Law Group and wouldn’t hesitate to use their services again, should the need arise.
Natasha is a highly professional and dedicated trusted employment law advisor who has a great understanding of employment law. I have known and worked with her for eight years, during which time she has given invaluable support and advice – she is a real pleasure to do business with.
