What makes me tick
It’s hard to talk about yourself, so I asked other people to tell me what they see.
Here’s what they said:
“Mark is very thorough, dedicated, caring, calm and funny. That’s a great combination in stressful times. He has the ability to talk to people from all walks of life putting everyone at ease. He goes above and beyond and is always available and ready to help resolve any situation/problem.”
My Professional Experience:
I qualified as a solicitor 1990 and have been on the Astute team since 2017.
My background in commercial litigation and commercial law. He began specialising in employment law in 2000 when acting for directors in respect of bonus claims, restrictive covenant issues and public and private limited companies dealing with restructuring issues often as part of company take overs. He also has extensive experience dealing with long term absences and poorly performing employees, prosecuting cases for unfair dismissal, various kinds of discrimination (eg disability, sex and race) with a knack for obtaining significant compensation awards.
Family and friends are extremely important to me and as a parent, one of the reasons I love being part of the Astute team is that we embrace flexible working and balancing time spent on the case and time with family.
What clients say about working with Mark
Patience and sound advice seems to be a common experience for Mark’s clients.
“I would like to thank you Mark for all your patience, persistence and professionalism over the last 16 months”.
“Mark afforded me time and patience, with regards to constructing a letter of claim to my client. As I am new to being a self-employed contractor, this experience has been invaluable, as it has also given me some insight into what I need to consider before signing further contracts.“
“I would rate the service as 5 stars because I felt that I was being listened to at all times, but also that I was being offered reasonable and suitable advice in line with how I wanted to progress with the matter.”
“I think the key thing was you came across as both calm / reassuring and also knowledgeable – this gave me confidence in the advice,”
“Mark’s and Astute Law’s services were exceptional in helping me settle my claim. It was a very stressful time and Mark’s experience and professional manner helped to make the process as easy as possible.”
