About the speaker

The session will be led by Alison Colley. Alison qualified as a solicitor in June 2006 and since then has specialised in providing advice to Employers and Employees on all aspects of Employment Law and HR, including mediation and dispute resolution within the workplace.

In November 2013 Alison launched Real Employment Law Advice, a boutique firm of Solicitors specialising in helping individual employees and businesses to deal with the stress that comes with problems at work and Employment Tribunal procedures.

When you think of a Solicitor most people think of a very traditional and often stuffy image, with a serious grey suit, long words and only providing advice and answers with a hefty bill.

Alison believes that as the world is changing, legal practice should be moving away from the traditional ways of working and service should be centred around what the customer wants. This is why Alison and her colleagues utilise technology in providing services to customers throughout the UK, providing lots of great free content, advice and information. Above all the focus is on ensuring the team are approachable and accessible in the customers time of need.

Alison’s vision is to improve the world of work for all.
