EMPLOYMENT LAW

This is an increasingly problematical area for commercial clients. Legal advice is important at an early stage to assess the potential impact of legislation, evolve efficient working practices and ensure that good industrial relations are established and maintained. If disputes do occur, we advise and, if necessary, arrange representation before the relevant Tribunals.
Under the supervision of Ronnie Robinson assisted and supported by Graeme King we act predominantly on behalf of employers, advising public and private companies and public bodies. Our work covers a broad spectrum, including the defence of complex discrimination, equal pay and unfair dismissal claims, advising on employment aspects of the sale and reorganisation of companies and businesses, drafting employment contracts, advising on redundancies and disciplinary matters, and advising regarding severance packages for senior executives.
