Our services:
We are employment specialists. Our lawyers have successfully advised global clients on employment matters and disputes for many years. You can be assured of receiving pragmatic advice from us to guide you through the complexities of employment law.
We act for both employers and employees whom we advise on all stages of the employment lifecycle from the first hire to everything that follows. We advise across a range of industries including financial services, technology, law and medicine.
Advisory services
Our advisory services cover assessing someone’s employment status, negotiating and documenting contracts, preparing staff handbooks and policies together with advising on obligations and entitlements.
We help employers protect their business’ interests and employees understand their position and negotiate a balanced agreement. We regularly advise on the preparation of employment contracts, directors’ service agreements and consultancy agreements.
Disputes and investigations
We will protect and assert your interests when things don’t go to plan.
This might involve advising on how to manage an underperforming employee or explain what constitutes a correct disciplinary process, the rights you have and what restrictions are allowed after employment ends.
We act for clients in employment tribunal proceedings as well as civil claims in the County and High courts. Our recent work includes advising on disciplinary processes,
employment tribunal claims and settling a claim in relation to the enforcement of restrictive covenants against a former senior executive.
Our lawyers have significant experience in dispute resolution and the most complex investigations with widespread consequences. This includes investigating Libor manipulation for a global financial services business. We combine our ability to deal with complex and large investigations with our expertise and knowledge of disputes and employment law in practice.
