The whole area of employment law has seen considerable change over the last decade, change which shows no sign of letting up.

Broadly, employees have benefited from a raft of legislation and it is important, when making job or career decisions, to be aware of the opportunities and rights available to you.

With the up to date information available to us we are able to offer you the following services:

Redundancy/Terminations/Compromise Agreement

Should you find yourself in the position where you are facing a potential redundancy then we will be able to advise you as to firstly whether or not the redundancy is fair and secondly whether or not the sums on offer to you are reasonable.  We will also be able to advise you on the terms of a proposed Compromise Agreement. 

Disciplinary, Dismissal and Grievance procedures

If you find yourself the subject of a disciplinary or dismissal procedure then we will be able to advise you of the best course of action, how to deal with any disciplinary or dismissal meeting and whether or not you should consider lodging an appeal against any decision made against you. 

Alternatively we can also advise you should you wish to lodge a grievance against your employer's or if you feel your grievance has not been dealt with effectively and properly by your employers. 

Contract advice and changes in contractual terms

We can provide you with all types of contract advice that you may require together with any advice in relation to changes to your contractual terms. 

Discrimination

If you find yourself the subject of discrimination on the grounds of gender, race, disability, religion, nationality, marital status, sexual orientation or age then we will be able to advise you of the best course of action to take whether that be raising a grievance or issuing a claim in the Employment Tribunal. 

Some of the other specialist services and advice we can provide are in relation to:

• Maternity/Paternity Rights
• Whistle-blowing
