Cheal Associates Ltd Testimonials
It was recommended that I talk to Dani when I started having problems with my employer earlier this year. My company was under financial pressure and being in Sales the focus was on downsizing. It was a time of much uncertainty and when unrealistic targets were imposed on me I started to feel very isolated.
Dani was immediately able to put me on track as my legal adviser but more importantly at the time, she reinstated my self-belief during a very difficult time. Dani gave me the tools to help put me back in control of the situation and she guided me to a position where I was able to negotiate very favourable redundancy terms. I would definitely recommend Dani and I would stress that it caused no issues using a lawyer in Dorset even though my company was London based.

I instructed Dani to be my legal representative for quite a significant issue I had with my employers. From the outset, Dani was extremely supportive and took on the role of confidante (almost counsellor) as well as solicitor. Dani offered practical and straightforward advice surrounding all issues and always put me at ease during the crucial and stressful points in my claim timetable. An unrivalled mind of information surrounding employment law; what she doesn't know about employment law isn't worth knowing.
While I'm grateful that the outcome of my claim was more than satisfactory, it saddens me to think that I will not have the opportunity to deal with Dani on a more frequent basis in the future. I would have no hesitation in recommending Dani and I would be more than happy to reiterate as much over a phone call to anyone thinking of instructing her.
An absolute pleasure to deal with.

Being made redundant after 10 years with my employer, where I was a Regional Manager, I was only being offered statutory compensation package when previously a precedent had been set with peers for a higher offering. I needed a professional in employment law to act on my behalf with the Director of Human Resources. The timescales were very tight and there were no opportunities for face to face meetings. Danielle Cheal undertook full research into previous compensation plans and provided professional and appropriate advice, undertaking necessary correspondence by telephone, mail and electronic mail.
The result was that the case was completed within two weeks with the appropriate package being offered.
Danielle was extremely professional and efficient whilst acting for me against my previous employer. I have since referred Danielle to colleagues in similar situations and would certainly use her as a consultant or for personal representation in the future.

Cheal Associates Ltd drafted the employment contracts for my company and advised me what obligations I had as an employer. Their agreements were well written and they explained everything to me on a level that was clear and applicable to my business. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again or recommend them to others.
