Employment

The success of a business is largely dependent on its people.  Getting things right at the beginning of the employment relationship is as important as proper handling of the end of the relationship.

Our team of specialist employment solicitors works with your business to understand and manage burdensome and complicated employment legislation.  We will provide you with commercial and pragmatic advice that is tailored towards your business needs.

We will be there to support you at all stages of the employment relationship.  We know and understand the difficulties faced by employers and will look at the legal issue in the context of your organisation to ensure that our advice fits the ethos and aims of your business.

Based primarily in St Albans, Hertfordshire, our lawyers have many years of experience and can deal with all matters of employment law, whether that is drafting Employment Contracts and Handbooks, dealing with general HR matters or defending Employment Tribunal Claims (including unfair dismissal and discrimination).

Our service is client centred and cost effective.  We also offer an HR retainer service, Peak People, which includes access to on-demand employment advice, health check audits to help you evaluate your exposure to employment law problems, as well as in-house training specific to the needs of your business.

We can also advise employees, for example in relation to Compromise Agreements and employment disputes.  Our experience advising businesses gives us a valuable insight into the strategies and motivations of employers.  We offer reduced rates for individuals, ensuring that our services are affordable and cost effective.
