We handle complex litigation, particularly in the areas of discrimination and equal pay, TUPE and the enforcement of restrictive covenants. Our Employment team includes experienced advocates, who represent clients in courts and tribunals throughout the UK, and experienced mediators.

We work with clients on transactions of many kinds, including acquisitions, outsourcings and joint ventures, ensuring that commercial objectives are achieved.

We deal with large change management exercises, such as redundancy programmes and restructuring.

We advise on day-to-day employment issues, including disciplinary and grievance matters, dismissals, collective agreements and employment documentation.

We provide Employment Training that helps prevent problems arising in the first place.

We offer an HR consultancy service that is available to clients who need more than just legal advice.
