We represent employees at all stages of their employment, from the most senior employee down to the new recruit.  Often, we encounter senior employees who are blindsided by surprise exit proposals (particularly where there are overseas entities involved), or are called to answer allegations of wrongdoing / bullying or other investigations. We also assist with navigating through redundancy processes, agreed exits, restraint of trade, or reviewing terms of a new employment agreement.  

We are also able to act in those situations where many law firms cannot, because they already act for the company and have conflict of interests. Irrespective of whether your role is senior or junior, the same issues arise, and we approach every client as equally important and deserving of excellent service.  Lately, we have been involved in many issues relating to unvaccinated status of employees, which has proved to be a rapidly changing landscape, and very distressing for many of our clients.  If money is an issue, then we have an Associate available to assist you at a lower rate, who is still very experienced.  As we act for employers and employees, we are able to provide excellent insight into pragmatically assisting people to resolve their concerns in a way that can maintain their relationships (where that is important to them) and their reputation.  When acting for employers, we have seen lawyers who unknowingly sabotage any chance of a good settlement for their client purely from their interactions with the employer.  

Whether it is an allegation of misconduct, a proposal to make your position redundant or issues of stress and/or bullying, ill-health or whatever the issue, choosing the right person to represent you can make all the difference and we believe our firm has the skills necessary to best help you navigate your journey.
