Employment Law
We advise both employees and employers on a wide range of workplace issues, including dismissal, discrimination, and settlement agreements.
We understand that workplace situations are often stressful and not always straightforward. Our approach is to provide clear, practical advice so that you can understand your position and decide what to do next.
Settlement Agreements
If you have been offered a settlement agreement, it is important to take independent legal advice before signing.
We can review the agreement, explain its terms in plain English, and advise you on whether the offer is reasonable. Where appropriate, we can also assist with negotiating improved terms.
Workplace Issues and Dismissal
We advise on issues including unfair dismissal, disciplinary processes, grievances, and workplace disputes.
Where matters may lead to a claim, we can help you understand the strength of your position, the options available, and the steps involved in bringing or defending a claim at the employment tribunal.
Our approach is to provide practical advice to help resolve issues at an early stage and help manage risk.
Discrimination and Harassment
We have experience advising on discrimination and harassment claims, including cases involving race, disability, and other protected characteristics.
These cases can be complex, particularly where there are overlapping issues. We can help identify the relevant legal framework and assess the strength of any potential claim.
Employment Tribunal Support
We can provide advice at different stages of a potential claim, including:
-
assessing the merits of a claim
-
advising on ACAS Early Conciliation
-
drafting or reviewing Employment Tribunal claims
-
advising on settlement discussions
We will usually recommend starting with an initial review and advice session, so that you have a clear understanding of your position before deciding how to proceed.
Fees
We offer a range of fee structures depending on the work involved, including fixed fees for initial advice and hourly rates for ongoing work.
Fees can be discussed at the outset once we have an understanding of your situation.
