We know how to take care of the way you manage your human resource so you can concentrate on managing your business. To this end, our specialist team concentrates exclusively on employment law and related issues to provide advice which is prompt and technically accurate on the one hand, commercial and practical on the other.

Our work includes:

  • advising on employment contracts, particularly the use of restrictive covenants and confidentiality clauses, directors' remuneration packages, bonus arrangements and share option schemes
  • drafting policies and procedures, such as redundancy, disciplinary and grievance procedures together with equal opportunities and harassment policies
  • advising on corporate transactions, including the effect of the Transfer of Undertaking Regulations, collective redundancies and trades union issues
  • handling litigation in the Employment Tribunal, including claims for unfair dismissal, discrimination, equal pay, deduction of wages and breach of contract
  • providing representation by experienced advocates in High Court breach of contract claims and on applications for injunctions to restrain breaches of post-termination obligations
  • assisting with day-to-day personnel issues, such as the handling of dismissals and the settlement of disputes, discrimination, trades union recognition, collective bargaining and strikes, Working Time Regulations, absenteeism and stress
  • providing training for clients on all aspects of the employment relationship and on developments in employment law, with regular seminars and workshops and tailor-made programmes on your premises
