Acas Conciliation

Discover Early ACAS Conciliation (EAC) Overview by Blair Toner. Find out what the key steps of EAC are.

“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.”

“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”

“An exceptional Barrister I would highly recommend. Great communication throughout the whole journey. Clear and concise at every stage of the process”

“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.”

“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.”
