Employment - Contentious Issues

Employment laws and regulations are changing at such a fast pace that they can prove to be a minefield to the unwary and costly if procedures are not adhered to.

Our skilled litigators will act in all contentious issues for both employers or employees including employment tribunals (unfair dismissal, redundancy, discrimination and associated claims and disputes), and High Court and County Courts (contractual and harassment claims).

For employers we advise on grievance and disciplinary procedures. We negotiate and advise on settlement terms and compromise agreements for exiting employees, together with all other employment issues relevant to employers.
