Employment law
 Employment law continues to undergo considerable and far-reaching change. These changes make it difficult for employers to keep pace with their own obligations and the rights of their employees or for employees to know where they stand.
Our experienced team can advise on the up-to-date position and how current and new legislation affects your business.
Our work covers non-contentious issues such as the preparation of directors’ service contracts and contracts of employment and transactional employment issues arising out of the TUPE Regulations in the run up to, during and after the sale or acquisition of business.
If things begin to go wrong in the work place we encourage you to make early contact with us so that we can assist and formulate an action plan and guide you through disciplinary procedures thereby minimising the risk of claims such as breach of contract or unfair dismissal arising later on. Should a claim be made against you, we can undertake representation at all levels of the Tribunal and Court processes.
Our clients come to see us as an integral part of their team and we aim to build long term relationships with them. We are happy to discuss with you the level of advice you require for your business.
Although we predominantly act for employers we are pleased to advise employees as well.

- Directors’ Obligations
