Steven Eckett was referred by one of his colleagues Ashley Baber, who I had previously dealt with on a failed house purchase. Steven assisted me with an employment issue and throughout our dealings he was very approachable and always replied to correspondence and calls swiftly. He gave great advice and helped me reach a decision I was happy with. I would highly recommend Gilson Gray and especially Ashley Baber and Steven Eckett. They are a law firm that really does care about their clients and I feel very grateful that I had their assistance. They will be my go to now for all things legal. Thanks Ashley and Steven 🙂

Ranny is approachable, supportive and took the time to really understand both our current position and future goals. His advice during the financial scoping process was thoughtful, practical and clearly tailored to our context. He is also an excellent communicator, explaining financial considerations in a way that was accessible and easy to understand for people without a finance background. A pleasure to work with throughout, and I would highly recommend him.

Ranald is a highly professional and approachable adviser who fully understand both my current circumstances and future goals. His supportive manner, clear communication and thoughtful advice throughout the process provided real reassurance and confidence. I would confidently recommend Ranald to anyone seeking dependable and well considered guidance.

Ranald has been totally professional throughout our meetings. His breadth of knowledge about the pensions market and various options has been very helpful. Cannot recommend him highly enough. Excellent service.

I contacted Steven Eckett at Gilson Gray to deal with a matter concerning an employment matter following a redundancy. The matter was handled in a very professional and timely manner and with a successful outcome. I was given good advice at all times and Steven responded to queries and shared correspondence quickly. I have no hesitation in recommending Steven and the services of Gilson Gray.

We engaged Steven Eckett to support Blueprint Design Company Limited during a critical period of employment contract review, in light of forthcoming changes in UK employment legislation, and amid a broader business transition. Steven provided clear, pragmatic and highly responsive advice throughout. His ability to distil complex employment matters into precise, actionable guidance gave us the confidence to proceed with the drafting and issuance of updated contracts, as well as the management of sensitive employee engagement processes. Of particular note was Steven’s handling of a challenging individual case where contractual discussions were repeatedly contested and accompanied by inaccurate interpretations and AI-generated rebuttals. His measured, evidence-based approach ensured that the company’s position was robustly validated, enabling us to address and resolve the situation efficiently. His timely interventions directly contributed to the withdrawal of unfounded claims, supporting a controlled and professional outcome during a high-risk phase of employment. Throughout our interactions, Steven consistently demonstrated exceptional clarity, speed of response, and sound commercial judgement. His support materially reduced the burden on management and ensured that the process remained structured, compliant and proportionate. We would not hesitate to recommend Steven Eckett and Gilson Gray (England) Ltd for employment law support, particularly where clarity, responsiveness and practical delivery are essential.

Had a great experience with an employment lawyer called Steven, he really went the extra mile to help me with comms to my ex employer and make sure I understood my situation well and got the best package possible.
