Employment Law
Employment law affects every stage of the employer–employee relationship, from hiring and workplace policies to performance, disputes and dismissal. We give businesses practical advice and help put clear, workable documentation and processes in place.
Clear advice, early
Protect the decision before it becomes a problem.
Outdated documents or an inconsistent process can turn a manageable people issue into a grievance, claim or tribunal dispute. Taking advice early helps employers understand their options, document decisions and follow a fair process.
We start by understanding the commercial outcome you want, then identify the legal work needed to reach it. You receive practical advice, a clear scope and a cost basis to approve before substantive work begins.

Frequently asked
Employment Law, explained.
General guidance only. The right answer depends on your circumstances.
When should an employer ask for employment-law advice?
As early as possible when a grievance, performance, absence, redundancy or dismissal issue develops. Advice before decisions are communicated generally leaves more room to follow a fair process and manage risk.
Can you update our existing contracts and staff handbook?
Yes. Existing documents can be reviewed against how the business operates now, with recommended changes explained before revised wording is prepared.
How is the cost of employment support agreed?
It depends on whether the work is a defined document project or an evolving employee matter. The scope and charging basis are explained and agreed before work begins, with changes discussed if the matter develops.
