The problem
Lorraine J was at a low point in her life when she first spoke to one of our Litigation Executives, Kate Reah. Lorraine’s employment had been wrongfully terminated due to her pregnancy and, heartbreakingly, she had to then go through the devastating loss of her baby due to a medical termination.
The solution
Lorraine’s case was such a sensitive topic. She was not only looking for a professional and experienced legal advisor, but also wanted empathy and understanding.
She immediately felt reassured when she found our website, saying: “I could tell that Paul Doran Law was a firm with a personal approach – not a call centre – as I could see the faces of all the associates”.
The result
We agreed the best option for Lorraine was to accept a settlement.
She said: “It was definitely the right decision as it would have been too traumatic for me to relieve such a painful experience at a tribunal. Kate fully supported my decision and I feel I have made a real difference and that lessons have been learnt.”
In Lorraine’s own words
“I was broken, but Kate was not only my legal advisor but my emotional support and wise counsel throughout the long 18-month process of getting justice.
“It wasn’t about the financial settlement for me. I simply didn’t want this to happen to another woman again. Kate never wavered from this objective. She was amazing – always patient, calming and so well informed. I never doubted her advice, knowing she had my best interests in her mind at all times.
“Whenever I called, she always made time to update and reassure me and follow up quickly on any queries with the case.
“Paul Doran Law is not just a law firm; they are trusted colleagues. You can be confident that, however sensitive or traumatic your case, they will handle every detail with care and compassion. I would 100 percent recommend them.”
