Overview
The world of employment law is complex and ever changing. While the best option is to avoid problems before they arise, we understand that a pro-active approach is not always possible. Our employment lawyers will work with you to reduce risk and plan for the future, while also advising you during difficult times.
From the everyday to the strategic, our team advises businesses and organisations on the full range of employment issues. Operating as one unit from our offices in Birmingham and London, our team has a standalone reputation when it comes to employment law in the UK. As part of a full-service law firm, we also regularly collaborate with lawyers from across our other practice areas such as tax, health and safety, and financial services regulation.
We have worked on a multitude of time-sensitive, large and complex projects, investigations and restructuring exercises while also delivering business as usual operational HR, advisory and litigation advice.
Our contentious experience covers High Court business protection litigation through to complex discrimination and whistleblowing tribunal claims, with experience in equal pay litigation, agency worker disputes, national minimum wage compliance and holiday pay.
As the needs of employers continue to evolve and environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues become increasingly important, there are key areas where we can offer particular employment law advice.
