Managing Director at Premier Ford

Employment Law has become a time consuming minefield, which is best negotiated with the help of a professional. We are very lucky on the Island to be able to call on the services of Alison Colley and her team at REAL employment Law. Since joining their Harbour Membership they have updated and re -written our employee handbook, trained our managers on several gaps in our knowledge, and are well on the way to sorting out two potentially difficult and time consuming employee issues. And we’ve only been members for five months! And the best bit is they do take the worry of it away. Great people, excellent service, thoroughly recommended!

Mr S

We wish to say a very big thank you for making the separation from my employer go so smoothly.

With your diligence and expertise, you found and got corrected things in the agreement which would have been detrimental.

Thank you also for your promptness in responding to emails/calls and using plain English communication.

We would be happy to add to any recommendations previous clients have given you.

It has been a pleasure dealing with you and even though it was because of me leaving my employer, it has been a relief knowing you had my best interests in mind.

Business Director

As a business director I am looking for clear, practical guidance on HR matters and have found REAL Employment  to be prompt and straightforward with their advice I am reassured to have the services of REAL providing professional support in the background as and when it is needed. Our first experience of the service they can provide was Albert attending and chairing a disciplinary matter for us.  The meeting was conducted in a highly professional manner, with clear and concise information to all concerned.  This level of service is reassuring as employment law is ever changing.  Alison and the team know their profession and share that expertise in a fair and transparent fashion. The service provided  is tailored to our business needs and as a Platinum Harbour member they also offer specific training to our company requirements. I would highly recommend REAL employment to any company requiring HR support.

The expert but also understanding and supportive advice I received helped me through a very difficult time in my life. After a successful and satisfying conclusion to the case, with an admission of full liability, I was able to move on with my life.

Dawn Holgate

HR Generalist

I’m a HR generalist returning to work in 1 week after a 9-year career break. Whilst super excited, I was also feeling very apprehensive knowing all the changes I have missed in UK Employment Law. These podcasts have been a life saver because they were well structured, formatted in easily manageable chunks and free of charge. The content is clear and concise and very high quality.

Mr R Hodgson

Owner, Isle of Wight Cheese

Really happy with the advice and the contract templates that Jo has created for us. Throughout the process Jo was able to guide us and word potentially sensitive aspects within our contract in the best possible way for both the employee and ourselves. All questions we had were dealt with speedily and we were able to conduct the revisions by email at our own pace which was extremely helpful as we were doing this at a busy time of year. Highly recommended!

I had a great experience working with Rachel. She was highly responsive via email and provided clear, insightful opinions on my case. The initial free consultation phone call was particularly helpful — it was much more thorough than other consultations I had with different companies, and that’s why I chose to go with this firm. Rachel gave a lot of free advice upfront, which I really appreciated.

Mr D Davies

Alison did a fantastic job helping me navigate what was quite a stressful and time-pressured process. She explained legal issues and implications, gave good advice and helped me amend problematic areas. She made sure I understood the process and was available to help whenever needed. Fees were clearly explained from the outset and very reasonable. I couldn’t have asked for more!
