    I went to Vital Ruwala at ELS Employment Solicitors last year with my difficult case which recently concluded with a positive outcome and he has been nothing short of amazing. There have been many times when I wanted to give up and walk away due to the stress it had caused me but Vital helped me through it with his support and professional advice. His knowledge and expertise in dealing with cases like this brought me ease. He was always informative and keeping me up to date. I genuinely cannot recommend Vital enough as in my opinion, he is one of the best Employment Lawyers out there. Thank you for everything Vital.

    Vital was very professional and knowledgeable in the legal aspects of my settlement agreement. He helped with negotiations and achieved a good outcome which I probably wouldn’t have achieved with a different solicitor. Would highly recommend his services in employment legal matters.

    I used these solicitors to get further advice regarding a grievance I had with my boss at work with the possibility of taking my case to a tribunal. Vital was very professional and explained to me in simple terms what my options were. He able to negotiate a very good exit package/agreement which I would not have been able to get without his help . I would highly recommend ELS solicitors for anyone who finds themselves in a similar position and requires expert employment law advice and support .
