“We have always found their advice to be both expert and pragmatic. They take the time to understand our business and a particular situation, outlining a number of options but never afraid to recommend a course of action. They have been incredibly responsive – even though we know they have other clients we are never made to feel like we are anything other than their number one priority.”

Steve Moss, HR and Legal Director, LeasePlan

“Working in a very fast paced industry where our decisions on employment matters must be taken in line with our commercial goals – Morr & Co are business savvy and have taken the time to get to know our business and the key stakeholders. The advice is pragmatic yet bespoke to our company and the varied employment matters we have dealt with over the years.”
