Employment law

Our Employment law team can help in all HR situations, whether for employer or employee, and whether contentious or amicable.

The fact that the Employment law team has experience acting both for employers and employees means that they know what’s important on “both sides of the fence”. That places them at a distinct advantage as it ensures realistic advice at all times.

Sometimes workplace relationships become difficult and the Employment law team will act positively but sensitively to manage and resolve any disputes or grievances.

We place an emphasis on trying to avoid costly tribunal claims where possible.

When acting for employers we seek to get the HR procedures right at the start to avoid the potential for a claim. The team has extensive knowledge in advising organisations how best to comply with ever-changing employment laws.

When acting for employees we balance the cost of proceedings with the potential for agreeing a settlement with the employer using skilled negotiation techniques.
