Testimonials

“I contacted Gannons for employment advice and to check over a settlement agreement. Alex Kleanthous and the team were exemplary in their care of my case. I was referred to them by an ex-colleague, and I in turn have not hesitated to recommend to other colleagues seeking employment legal advice. Very easy to deal with. Great communication. Would recommend (again and again!).”

“I have nothing to compare this to but Alex Kleanthous, was incredibly helpful whilst I was going through redundancy. I’d not been through this before and he meticulously went through and explained the settlement agreement as well as requested several “tweaks” on my behalf. If I ever have to go through this again, I won’t hesitate to use Gannons or recommend them to peers.”

“I recently asked Alex Kleanthous to provide a review of my new employment contract. This was not the first time I had worked with Alex and Gannons and, as before, his advice was to the point, pragmatic and exactly what I was looking for. He picked up on a few critical aspects I had missed and all for a cost-effective charge.”

“Good, comprehensive and helpful service. Alex Kleanthous explained all the details about the redundancy settlement in a clear and understanding manner.”

“Massive thank you to Alex Kleanthous at Gannons for making a difficult experience of being made redundant a smooth and straightforward process. Alex clearly explained my Settlement Agreement to me, laid out the process in layman terms I could understand and was very friendly and utterly professional.
Thank you Alex and Gannons for the very professional service provided.”
