Mohammed Balal

Solicitor

Contact Mohammed

I am an Employment Solicitor based at our head office in Bury.

With seven years of dedicated experience within Employment Law, I have honed my skills and expertise to effectively navigate the intricacies of this legal domain. Throughout my career, I have represented and advised small and medium-sized enterprises in pursuing claims at the Employment Tribunal and in Civil courts.

In my previous role, I held the singular responsibility of being the sole Employment Solicitor. This encompassed the comprehensive management of claims on behalf of both Respondents and Claimants. The spectrum of cases I handled ranged from routine matters involving unlawful deductions to more complex issues such as director disputes.

One aspect of my professional journey that I take immense pride in is my involvement in large-scale class action claims, representing thousands of clients. Notable successes include handling cases for employees of entities like Arcadia Topman/Topshop, Flybe, BritishVolt, Misguided, Made.com, Peacocks Store Limited, Tufnell’s Parcel Express Limited, Tolent Consurtcuation and Go-Centric. I have been actively engaged in these cases from their inception to their successful resolution.

I take pride in my meticulous attention to detail, coupled with a practical approach to solving problems. My methodology consistently revolves around prioritising my clients, guided by their objective and executed with the utmost sensitivity.

When I am not in the office I love taking spontaneous trips around the UK but mainly going up to Scotland to see family.

    What our clients say about Mohammed

    Mohammed was great. Supportive phone call to begin with and clearly explained what he could do (what a legal firm had to do) and also then what would happen next. Took over communications with my employer and then had a Teams meeting which guided me through the document which was super useful.

    William

    From the beginning to end Mohammed Balal was consistent in his approach to supporting me through one of the toughest periods I’ve had to endure, due to discrimination during my pregnancy. I was really anxious about going down the route with a solicitor, though I also felt it necessary. Mohammed was empathetic and patient, as well as clearly well equipped and experienced to provide me with their legal advice and the actions required to resolve something I felt to be quite complicated and stressful to manage alone. As a woman, I felt quite nervous regarding who I felt I could share my experience with and I felt well supported by Mohammed on a professional and personal level. I highly recommend Mohammed as an Employment Lawyer.
