From the initial consultation with Julian I felt at ease that he understood what needed to be discussed and agreed on a mutual basis. Over a period of 3-4 weeks, the challenges and issues were discussed with my employer and a mutually acceptable agreement was achieved for all concerned in a positive manner. I can thoroughly recommend Julian and Ellison's Solicitors from my own personal experience.

Ellisons assisted me with my business sale , and Julian Outen in particular with Employment issues during the sale and afterwards with issues in the sale agreement Julian was a great help, honest and forthright.

We engaged Julian Outen at Ellisons, Ipswich to defend a complex Employment Tribunal claim. Julian was very professional, supportive, tenacious and proactive throughout the whole process, which took almost 12 months to bring to a successful conclusion. Julian certainly understands the complexities and challenges of employment law, however he is able to explain information in a way that is understood. When provided with all information, Julian and his team took the hard work away from us, so we could focus on our business, and he kept us updated every step of the way.

I worked with Julian Outen, who came highly recommended, and Tina Maxey. Because of my ex-profession I have worked with many lawyers, both good and bad – both Julian and Tina kept me fully in the loop, I felt respected, listened to and comfortable with the approach at all times.

Julian Outen is a pleasure to work with, supporting me at a very difficult and unhappy time. He was kind and sensitive in his approach, and sensing when matters were becoming overwhelming for me, which in turn helped manage my stress. This did not prevent them from giving me hard news when it was needed and my level of trust and respect for him made that was easier to hear.

Julian is responsive, knowledgeable and clear in his communications in meetings and in writing.
