Employment Law
Do you need assistance on an Employment matter?
Our diverse team of employment lawyers act for both employers and employees, so we are definitively able to consider workplace issues from a number of different perspectives. This is unusual and somewhat unique among City law firms.
It means we understand the challenges faced by either party in a given situation and can deploy the necessary strategies and tactics to make that knowledge work for you; whether as employer or employee.
Our clients benefit hugely from the sheer breadth of experience we have developed advising a wide range of individuals and organisations across the UK, and as a result our employment team is consistently recognised as Top Tier in the Legal 500 and Chambers Directories, with many of the team being given the Recommended Lawyer accolade.
Our clients are diverse and from a broad range of industries; we simply don’t need to limit ourselves to advising in a particular sector. We are versatile and inventive with our advice, which when combined with the experience and range of knowledge we possess, results in informed and commercial solutions to achieve the best results for you.
We act for all kinds of clients; from C-suite and senior executives to leading financial and regulatory bodies, family offices, and other City law firms.
We seek to always provide astute commercial solutions. Whatever the method – whether through mediation, arbitration, High Court hearings or employment tribunal proceedings – our employment team combines determination and intelligence to deliver the best possible outcome.
