Our employment solicitors have the expertise to help resolve a wide range of workplace disputes. We act for both employers and employees seeking advice and our team can assist wherever you are based.
We believe in equality and best practice in the workplace. Our advice covers all aspects of employment law including contracts, policies, restructures, redundancies, disciplinaries, grievances, settlement agreements and tribunal representation.
It is always advisable to seek an early resolution to a dispute before things worsen and end up costing you more in both time and expense. Our employment solicitors are on hand to assist you with any employment related dispute that may arise in the workplace.

If you have any issues or queries about your contract, or you believe the terms of your contract have been broken, the first thing you should do is take this up with your employer.
If the relationship between yourself and your employer worsens or you believe your rights are being breached, you should seek legal advice about your options. You may be unaware of your rights given the situation, but our specialist solicitors are on
hand to explain what your next steps should be.
It is possible to assert your rights with your employer in a constructive, non- confrontational way that will enable a resolution to the matter and let you get on with your work and life.
The most common areas where we provide advice and expertise on are:
- Agreeing on redundancy terms
- Dealing with disciplinary and grievance procedures
- Discrimination in the workplace
- Issues surrounding contracts of employment
- Negotiating settlement agreements and severance terms
- Unfair dismissal claims
- Whistleblowing
How can I raise a grievance?
Always try talking with your employer informally before raising a formal grievance, to see if that helps resolve matters.
If you have tried to resolve your grievance informally and this approach failed to work, you should raise the matter formally. You should do this using your employer’s formal procedures for grievances. Your employer should put their grievance procedures in writing and it will likely be located in one of the following documents:
- Company handbook
- Staff manual
- HR or personnel manual
- Intranet
- Employment contract
At the very least your employer must give you in writing the name of the person that you can apply to, to seek a resolution.
If your employer doesn't have a formal procedure, please call us to discuss the steps you should take.
What is a settlement agreement?
In its simplest form, a settlement agreement will provide for a severance payment by the employer in return for your agreement not to pursue any claims in a tribunal or court.
To be legally binding you will need to take independent legal advice on the document. We can review the document and sign it off for you.
Our specialist employment solicitors will advise you on the merits of your matter, if a settlement agreement is suitable and the amount of money you may receive at an Employment Tribunal.
