Employment Law for Employers

We can help employers seeking legal advice about many employment law issues, including:

• Employment law dispute resolution.
• Changes to terms and conditions of employment.
• Disciplinary, grievance and performance review procedures.
• Discrimination and the Equality Act.
• Dismissals and terminations.
• Redundancy and lay offs.
• Settlement agreements.
• Restructuring.
• TUPE transfers.
• Flexible working.
• Agency workers and contractors.
• Restrictive covenants.
• Confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements.

For an annual fixed fee, employers can get direct advice and support from an experienced employment lawyer whenever they need it. The service covers day to day advice about employment relations and employee disputes.

As part of the service we make sure employment contracts are legally compliant and that all the right HR policies and procedures are in employee handbooks. We can draft a complete set of suitable documents if required, and keep them updated.

Bishopsgate Law retained client employers get direct support from one of our SRA-regulated employment lawyers through telephone, e-mail, video calls and document sharing.

• Fixed fee employer support.

If you are facing an employment tribunal claim from an employee, we can advise you about defending the claim and represent you at the tribunal. We can also act for you during Acas conciliation, or conduct pre-claim negotiations if necessary.

Where a claim has already been lodged with the tribunal we can act for you and negotiate with the claimant or their representatives to try and settle the claim. We are experienced in providing pragmatic solutions to minimise liabilities and resolve problems in the most efficient and cost-effective way we can.
