EMPLOYMENT LAW
Employment law issues are at the core of any business. We provide expert Counsel and representation across the full spectrum of employment issues listed below. Whether it is a business transaction, or defending or prosecuting a case before a court or employment tribunal, we aim to find a cost-effective solution which suits your needs.
Areas of work include:
- Compromise agreements
- Contracts of employment
- Disciplinary, dismissal and grievance procedures
- Employment tribunal proceedings and unfair dismissals
- Equal pay, discrimination, victimisation and harassment
- Maternity and parental rights
- Pay, benefits and pensions
- Transfer of undertakings (TUPE)
- Working time issues
In view of the fact that costs orders made in Employment matters are limited to certain circumstances, we generally prosecute a claim on what is commonly known as a Contingency fee arrangement, which means that we deduct a certain pre-set agreed percentage from the damages awarded to you which is usually 25-33% depending on the complexity of the matter. If you are unsuccessful in your claim, you would only be liable to pay your own Barrister’s fee for representing you at trial but would not be liable for our costs. |
