With the distraction of increasingly complex and costly employment legislation directly affecting the profitability of many businesses across the UK it could be time to look at how our expertise can allow you to focus on what you do best.

Organisations turn to us not only because they are facing more frequent employment disputes that are of a greater cost but also because the insurance or HR advisors they have engaged are often failing to meet their business needs.

All services are carried out by regulated and qualified solicitors within our Employment unit, who will be known to you by name. It is comprised of 3 core components that have been designed to offer seamless financial and business continuity protection:-

1. The Audit (Health Check) Your current policies and practices will be reviewed in order for us to get to know your business and establish how to bring you up to date with the latest legislation and achieve compliance within the law.

2. Expert Advice (Ongoing Support & Dialogue) - Direct access to unlimited advice by a qualified employment law solicitor, who knows your business and understands your specific needs meaning you won’t have to deal with call centres that can often be vague and impersonal. You are given clear advice that is tailored to meet the best interests of your business. This not only ensures that the matter is properly handled from the outset but also ensures that you are fully insured when you follow the advice given.

3. Insurance Policy (Financial Security) – We are fully authorised by insurers to manage your claim by insurers. The policy fits seamlessly with our services and pays the legal costs of an employment dispute, covers settlements and the cost of awards * . This radically minimises your exposure to unexpected financial loss, and caps all your Employment and HR costs providing peace of mind. In real terms this will often result in huge cost savings. * Full details of the cover is available upon request.

How Our Scheme Is Unique Our scheme is operated by dedicated professionals who understand our client’s specific needs (not a call centre).

• If necessary we will attend your premises
• We deliver a hands on practical solution to problems, and will advise you how to avoid future claims arising.
