About Alex Thorpe
I am meticulous in legal research, drafting documents and assisting clients. I come from a background in employment law, assisting employees with various workplace issues from discrimination claims to unfair dismissal.
My strengths in communication allow me to cut through the legal jargon and explain complex legal processes in a manner tailored to the client’s concerns. My in-depth knowledge of key employment law legislation – particularly the Equality Act 2010 and Employment Rights Act 1996 – allows me to quickly identify the strengths and weaknesses of the case, so that the client is fully informed of which strategy would be most effective to achieve their desired result.
I have also worked for 3 years in criminal defence, providing high-quality legal analysis of cases and receiving excellent client feedback following outstanding outcomes both in and out of Court.

He offered insights I simply wouldn’t have known to consider myself, and I always felt confident that my matter was being handled properly. I also really appreciated the communication.

I’d have no hesitation working with Alex again."

"I approached Monaco Solicitors during a deeply difficult time in my working life. My confidence had been shaken, and standing up for myself felt daunting. Alex Thorpe gave me clear advice, but what I will remember most is his kindness. He listened, took my concerns seriously and helped me feel that my rights mattered—and that I had every reason to stand up for them. When you are struggling, having someone treat you with patience and respect can mean more than they realise. Alex gave me the courage to keep going when I was finding it hard to believe in myself. Although my situation has not ended with a settlement, my gratitude for his support is wholehearted. He was honest with me about my position, and I valued that honesty as much as his compassion. If you are facing a difficult employment situation and feel overwhelmed, I would wholeheartedly recommend speaking to Monaco Solicitors.
