What can I say? The team at Precept are fantastic. They are a joy to work with; friendly and supportive, offering pragmatic, practical solutions to any problem I present. I have successfully relied on Rob and Emma for many years and cannot recommend them more highly. Pamela Ridgarde, Personnel Manager, Rumenco

Emma and the team at Precept are the most relatable, relevant and friendly lawyers we have ever worked with. Nothing is ever too much trouble and they are always upfront and honest when our queries may take longer to answer. From the get go we have always been made to feel like a valued customer and the advice and guidance provided is done so at a level that makes it relatable to all involved not just those with professional training. Not only is the advice easy to follow and support given throughout the process but the additional support given from webinars and law updates is invaluable as it is always explained in English rather than legal jargon.  Eleanor Fitzgerald, HR Advisor, Unilin

We contacted Precept in February 2023 after seeing Emma Tice in action at a HR Forum event run by our local Chamber of Commerce… On this occasion, we wanted the team to brush up on their knowledge of Equality, Diversity and Inclusion… The team provided feedback on our policies, reassuring our business that they were excellent, which boosted our confidence ahead of the session… On the day, our bespoke training was delivered by Philip Pearson… We saw positive changes being made imminently by the team, and this is testament to Precept’s ability to share legal knowledge in a way that is more informal, more comprehendible, and ultimately…. more fun. Theo Kirk, Director, Express Recruitment

“I must say how refreshing it is to have advice from Precept.  You all offer excellent advice.  You don’t bamboozle us with legal jargon and often keep it simple and short for us practitioners.  Thank you so much for being like this.  Keep up the good work.”

We’ve worked with the team at Precept for four years now and continue to be impressed with all aspects of the service, in particular their response times.  We find that we get practical, business focused HR advice that is tailored to our business circumstances by the dedicated team. Most importantly they understand we have a day job and are not HR professionals, so deliver the advice in a straight forward, plain speaking way that means we can digest it quickly and get back to the day job.  I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to any business in need of prompt support on current issues or to provide forward looking advice.  Mark Cummings, Finance Director

The service we receive from the whole team at Precept is outstanding and simply cannot be faulted. Their advice is always clear, and we never have to worry about receiving ambiguous, ‘on-the-fence’ counsel like we’ve had in the past.  Philip and Rob are our saviours when we feel a little out of our depth with complex employee relations cases, and no matter the situation they will safely advise and support us with the best way to handle it.  The cherry on top is that the team at Precept are so friendly, down-to-earth and a joy to work with. We love their light-hearted and I dare to say, fun approach to training too, which helps make tackling ER matters feel much less daunting.  Sarah Merton, HR Manager

Working with Emma has been an absolute game-changer! Their expertise in employment law is unrivalled, and they have an approachable, friendly style which makes working through complicated matters calming and reassuring. Whether navigating complex ER matters, delivering training to our managers, or providing policy advice, Emma and the team at PreceptHR consistently deliver exceptional service with a personal touch. I couldn’t ask for a better legal partner!  Ana Ferguson, Head of HR, The British Horse Society

We have been working with Precept as our HR provider and have been extremely impressed with the level of support, professionalism, and practical guidance they provide.

Precept have not only helped ensure that our business remains fully compliant with current employment legislation, but they have also supported us in putting the right policies, procedures, and frameworks in place to protect the company and create a positive working environment for our people.

What really sets Precept apart is their pragmatic, commercially aware approach. They understand the realities of running a growing engineering business and provide clear, sensible advice that allows us to make confident decisions while managing risk appropriately.

Their support has strengthened our management processes, improved consistency across the business, and helped ensure our team have the clarity, structure, and protections they need to perform at their best.

We would have no hesitation in recommending Precept to any business looking for a proactive, reliable, and highly knowledgeable HR partner.

Andy Ridge, Managing Director
