17 Months ago I was put in a life changing career decision and I didn't know where to turn until a good friend of mine recommended me to Jordan Whyte. The amount of help Jordan gave me through the most stressful period of my life was unbelievable. Jordan went far and beyond to help me out with my legal matter. Whenever I needed him he was there and whatever advice I needed he gave me and explained everything perfectly. The thing with Jordan is he is so relatable and likeable which made working with him so much easier than previous experiences with Lawyers. I cannot recommend Jordan highly enough and would always use him regarding any legal matter he can help me with. Thanks again for everything Jordan

Experience Highlights
- Represented a client in a multi-million-pound share sale. The client was a longstanding director and shareholder who had fallen into dispute with their fellow directors and shareholders. As a result, the client wanted to sell their entire shareholding to the fellow shareholders and resign from the directorship. From the heads of terms through to completion, Jordan ensured the client achieved the best possible outcomes including a “clean break” from the company, the necessary contractual protections for any historic liabilities along with employment advice resulting in an additional significant settlement payment to mutually terminate the contract of employment.
- Represented a client in the sale of a prominent bar/nightclub. Jordan represented the client throughout the sale process, from negotiating the initial heads of terms through to completion.
- Represented a client in a multi-million-pound construction dispute. A claim was made against the client for rectification costs and damages claiming that agreed work was not undertaken exercising reasonable care and skill. Under the terms of a subcontract the matter was referred to Adjudication and a nominated Adjudicator to decide on the dispute. Jordan represented the client through the adjudication process and the heads of claim were successfully defended and the Opponents claim was dismissed.
- Represented a client in an employment tribunal claim whereby the client was claiming to have been harassed and victimised by their employer. Jordan represented the client from the outset and the claim was successfully settled by mutual agreement prior to the final hearing for a significant settlement amount.
