Employment Law

We advise both employees and employers on workplace rights, disputes and contractual matters.

Workplace issues can be stressful, whether you're an employee facing unfair treatment or an employer managing a difficult situation. We advise both sides, giving practical, commercially-minded advice that reflects the realities of the workplace.

We aim to resolve matters early where possible, but we're equally prepared to represent you at an Employment Tribunal if that becomes necessary.

Workplace disputes often carry an emotional weight beyond the legal issues involved, and we're mindful of that throughout. Whether you're an employee or an employer, our goal is a resolution that lets you move forward.

Services Within Employment Law

Employment law governs the relationship between employers and employees, covering everything from the terms of a contract to how a dismissal is handled. Many disputes arise not from a single incident, but from a breakdown in how a situation was managed over time.

Employees generally need a minimum period of continuous service before they can bring certain claims, such as unfair dismissal, though other claims such as discrimination can arise regardless of length of service. Understanding which category your situation falls into is often the first step in assessing your options.

For employers, getting the process right matters as much as the underlying decision. A fair reason for dismissal can still lead to a successful claim against the business if the process followed wasn't reasonable, which is why early advice can help avoid costly disputes later.
