"Mannat is an exceptional junior and a pleasure to work with. She has accepted instructions on behalf of the claimants in two separate Employment Tribunal cases and at relatively short notice. Her fastidious approach to each case alongside her confident knowledge of the relevant law and procedure, and a very calm and clear oratory have produced excellent results in these less than straightforward hearings. We would not hesitate to instruct Mannat again."
