Employment is a
constantly changing area of law, and we strive to
ensure that our advice to you is always current and
aimed at meeting your particular needs. We act for
a variety of employers and employees alike, and provide
the full complement of contentious and non-contentious
services in this area.
We routinely advise
and represent company directors and senior City executives
on pre- and post-employment issues and contractual
entitlements arising from their service agreements
with a particular focus on post-termination restrictions
and the right to receive “discretionary”
payments.
We draft contracts
and employee handbooks and advise employers and their
HR managers on best practise and claims avoidance.
We also guide our clients through the formalities
of disciplinary and grievance procedures and managing
redundancies and dismissals.
Once an employment
relationship has come to an end, we negotiate exit
packages and draft compromise agreements for employers
and employees.
We also advise fellow
professionals with regard to employment issues, and
especially those arising in the insolvency context
and the sale and transfer of assets by insolvency
practitioners.
When our clients’
interests require protection or if negotiations ultimately
fail to resolve a dispute, there is recourse to the
Courts and the Employment Tribunals. We are well equipped
to represent your interests in either forum.
