“As the Group Head of People, I understand the paramount importance of partnering with a law firm that comprehends legal intricacies and appreciates the practical challenges businesses face every day. That’s why I wholeheartedly recommend Emma Tice and Precept HR. Renowned for their pragmatic approach and deep understanding of real business issues, they’re not just legal advisors but business partners. Emma and the Precept Team’s keen insight into the complexities of employment law and HR matters provides tailored solutions that align with my business values and objectives and empowers me to make informed decisions.”  Emma Martin, Head of People & Culture

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

Emma and her team have been friendly, professional and incredibly supportive from the very start. It’s been a breath of fresh air to work with a team who proactively work with you to demystify any  complex terminology and ensure you feel confident taking your projects/requirements forward. We were so happy with services provided to us that Emma is now our go to person for all our employment law queries and issues. We would highly recommend Emma to any individual or company looking for high quality services delivered in a friendly, reliable and professional manner. Hannah Musson, Head of People & Culture, FAB

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

I’ve been working with the brilliant Precept Team for at least four years now and I can’t speak highly enough of the service offered. I’ve had Rob, Emma, Phillip, Robyn and Alex, all support me through various challenging situations and each time, they have kept me sane and made me feel better just from their support and calming approach when I’m maybe not quite as calm. The best thing about Precept is when they say, “We could do X, Y or Z” or “Our options are X, Y or Z.”. They’ve made me feel like I’m not alone when I have been standalone HR during times in my career and that’s a massive thing for me. Precept definitely do law differently, but it is so refreshing and so successful, it really is something to shout about and be proud of! Massive thanks to the Precept Team, I appreciate each and every one of you!
