How we help employers with employment law advice
As an employer, you will find that employment law is a rapidly changing part of your business landscape. New laws that affect you come into force very frequently. You could be at risk for failure to properly apply employment law, both in direct cost to your business and indirectly in loss of productivity and reduced morale. A successful claim against you can have a dramatic impact on your business and can, in some cases, threaten its existence.
These are some of the most common areas we can help you with:
Advising you on or preparing your contracts of employment
Preparing or updating your employment policies and procedures
Dealing safely with employee redundancies
Guiding and advising you on disciplinary proceedings
Resolving employee grievances
Advising you on matters relating to disability and avoiding discrimination claims
How you can use best practice to avoid employment claims
Protecting your organisation’s trade secrets and confidential information
Preventing unfair competition through restrictive covenants and injunctions
Representing you in Tribunal and Court proceedings
Providing you with training and education in employment law, particularly new and forthcoming legislation
Need help with any of these issues?
Helping to keep you the right side of the law
We help you avoid claims by making sure that you understand the law and comply with it. We can reduce your risk and make sure that you have the best possible chance of avoiding successful claims or even eliminating the possibility of a claim against you altogether.
If you already have a claim against you, we can advise and represent you to make sure that the best possible defence is put forward or that the dispute is settled on the most favourable terms.
If you would like any more information about the services we provide please contact us.
Informative, clear help and advice. Ian was supportive, efficient and always at the end of the phone with any questions, and made my case as easy and stress free as possible. Although I hope not to require employment law help again, I would not hesitate to use Spencer Shaws services again. Highly recommend.
