In your corner as an employee
For employers
We work alongside your HR team to manage risk, handle disputes and keep you compliant. When things get tough — disciplinaries, grievances, or tribunal claims — our solicitors will guide you through and help you achieve the best outcome.
For employees
Fuss-free, friendly advice on workplace issues and settlement agreements. We also specialise in negotiating senior-level exits, working closely with our corporate team on shareholder rights and a smooth transition.
Help to galvanise your employees
Employee share schemes, bonus schemes and ownership models such as employee ownership trusts (EOTs) help you keep and attract the best people. Together we can explore your options, structure a new incentive or review the ones you already have in place.
We can also guide you through due diligence with your existing employee benefits if a company sale is on the cards.
Flexible fees to suit your needs
Our fees are straightforward and we offer capped charges should you decide to bring us on board.
