“This is the second case that Blair has dealt with for me, after having the misfortune of being in a similar position a number of years ago. The matter is finalised now, and Blair’s experience came through again, with a positive outcome for the 2nd time.”
“Blair was fantastic with my employment claim with a previous employer, a large Bank. He was very honest, explained the whole procedure throughout, and even though we didn’t meet face to face, he was only a phone call away, he was superb.”
“Blair Toner is an outstanding employment law resource. I have instructed him in every type of employment tribunal hearing and am always impressed by his level of preparation and service offered.”
“I can honestly give Toner Legal a 5 star review and would highly recommend to anyone who has any employment issues. I wasn’t even sure I had a case and the advice and reassurance I was given was amazing. Blair is an amazing lawyer and will give you honest and informative advice. I ended up with a settlement better than I could’ve ever thought possible and keep the number saved incase there is anything I ever need legal advice and representation with in the future.”
“Blair is a great Barrister that supported me to win a very difficult case that I had previously spent thousands of pounds with a solicitor before l contacted him directly. He went beyond the required duties to even support me in sourcing funding from external sources to enable me pay for the court fees. His own fees were so reasonable and l wished l met him at the beginning of this case which should have saved me a lot of money.
I really recommend his service to anyone as he is very good and will also be real with you.”
