Senior HR Manager - major international bank

"GQ|Littler were so strong on the psychological side. I didn't really want to go through the whole process [of a claim against a former employer] as I felt so vulnerable. They were the perfect choice in every respect and got me the outcome I needed."

Former company director

"I got what I wanted: GQ|Littler were realistic and sensitive to my particular needs.

They took my wishes on board and put things in context for me, meeting my objective of settling [with a former employer] and getting back into employment."
