We have been monitoring and reviewing the situation regarding the PIP breast implant scandal which has swept the media in recent weeks.

As a result we are opening a department dedicated to those women who have concerns over their PIP breast implants.

For further information regarding the background of the issues please see our Latest News page or please call in or telephone us to arrange a free and entirely confidential consultation. We can help you make a claim on a “No Win – No Fee Basis”.

Paul Harris-Stelfox joined McHale & Co Solicitors as the head of our new employment department in June 2011.

Prior to joining McHale & Co, Paul worked at Stripes Solicitors in Manchester where he was Director and Head of Employment but latterly Thomas Mansfield. He advised clients on all matters relating to employment law.

Paul trained at the employment specialist firm of Roydens under the guidance of the late David Royden. He gained valuable experience in advising on all aspects of employment law ranging from the traditional areas of practice such as contracts of employment and directors service agreements to litigation in the Employment Tribunals, Employment Appeal Tribunal and the higher courts.

We’re pleased to welcome Paul as part of the team.

McHale Sports client Tyrone Barnett has completed his transfer from Macclesfield Town to Crawley Town FC. Tyrone moves to the League 2 promotion favourites on a 2 year contract with the option of a third for an undisclosed fee.

Tyrone who was playing non league football until 12 months ago has been the subject of interest from a number of clubs following his debut league season in which he scored 13 goals.

He travelled to London on Tuesday afternoon with Darren Bossons and Tom Curle and completed the formalities of the move late that evening.

We wish Tyrone and Crawley all the best for the coming season.
