Employment law is a complex and constantly changing area. There is existing and new law, codes of practise, EU regulations, tribunal and court decisions to contend with. Employers are burdened with obligations and employees can be confused about their rights.

We provide a full range of employment law services from specialist lawyers and we advise employers on all aspects of employment law and HR issues. Our lawyers are experienced HR advisors, some of whom are also CIPD qualified. Our work covers:

  • Providing day to day advice on employment ad HR related issues; for example TUPE related issues, health and safety issues, the Working Time Regulations
  • Parental and maternity rights, part time workers, union issues
  • Conducting employment audits and due diligence reviews
  • Advising on service agreements, consultancy agreements, employment policies and staff handbooks
  • Assisting with recruitment, selection and promotion
  • Advising on individual and industrial dispute, disciplinary and grievance procedures, termination
  • Managing termination of the employment relationship, including drafting compromise agreements and advising on compensation packages
  • Providing post termination matters such as confidentiality obligations and restrictive covenants
  • Representing employers and employees at Industrial and Fair Employment Tribunals in relation to defending discrimination claims, unfair dismissal and breach of contract
  • We also design and deliver training seminars for our clients and hold workshops and in-house client training

Ignorance is no defence in law and can result in damaged reputations, distractions of management time and high costs for employers. We can offer cost effective specialist employment advice from experts. Our approach is to provide legal advice in combination with realistic commercial guidance.
