Martin Kaye Solicitors in short

Martin Kaye Solicitors is a four-office firm covering Telford, Shrewsbury, Wolverhampton and Wem, where employment advice for individuals sits beside an Alpha support service for businesses. Tribunal claims are costed in three published bands from £5,000 plus VAT, and the site states conveyancing quality and personal injury accreditations. The company record runs since 2006. The Telford branch sits at Euston Way with its own phone and email route.

Customer reviews sit at 3.7 on Google from 81 reviews. In our view published tribunal bands and a long company record count in its favour. Martin Kaye suits anyone who wants staff and business employment needs under one roof, in our judgement. What counts against it is that cooler record and no published insurance detail.
