“I was and still am amazed with a phone call from Mr Blair Toner and all the advice he gave me, after listening patiently to my circumstances. And all that, before I made any commitment to their services. He clarified all my doubts, pointed me in the right direction and the minimum I can do, is recommend their services immensely. This experience, made my day. Thank you!”

Cesar Meneghetti

“High praise for Blair Toner. It was encouraging to work with him. His personal attention, professionalism and dedication was the key component for a great outcome. He was always available specially with my job being outside office hours,the only time I could communicate with him was late in the evening but guess what he was there for me every time. I highly recommend his services. Thank you for your great service, knowledge, understanding and ability to put yourself in my position. You are great at your job and as a person. God bless you.”

- Ricardo

“Earlier this year I had a situation where my ex employer refused to pay what was owed after leaving the employment. The sum owed was in the region of £5000 and I was recommended Blair Toner. From the very first introduction and conversation of the problem, Blair guided me through the process of ‘Small Claims’ and linked me with the necessary forms etc. After winning judgement, still no payment happened. Blair then guided me through the process of appointing Court Baliffs and that resulted in the debt being paid in full. I personally would recommend Toner Legal and in fact Blair has since sorted a similar problem my son had experienced to my son’s total satisfaction.”

Alan Edward Goodes

“Toner Legal guided me through a difficult situation at work. I was very happy with the outcome and would definitely recommend this company. I was always kept up to date with the progress of my case and the approach taken was both professional and personable. I could not have got the same result without them.”

Jo S

“Mr Toner provided me with an outstanding service throughout my long and difficult case. Always available to communicate with, he never ceased to amaze me with not only his extensive legal knowledge but also his patience/ ability to translate it into easily understandable English. To quote the opposing Barrister at the opening of my cross examination she described our Witness Statement as ‘forensic’ – needless to say we had a very successful outcome. If I had to sum up Mr Toner’s service in just one word – Outstanding – would be the only word I would need. I always felt he was at least one step ahead of the opposition and in the end that proved to be the case. Thank you Mr Toner.”
