STARTING OR RUNNING A BUSINESS

Whether you are buying an existing business or starting from scratch, either alone, in partnership, or as a limited company we can provide professional guidance.

All businesses sometime or other fall into dispute with their customers, suppliers or competitors. We are experts at resolving such disputes whether through negotiation or the courts. In every case our aim is to provide the speediest and most cost effective result.

EMPLOYMENT PROBLEMS

This is an extraordinarily complex and fast changing area of law and we habitually act for employees and employers alike.

Possibly you have been unfairly dismissed or made redundant or have been discriminated against on the grounds of race, religion, sex, disability or age. As an employer you may be facing a claim in the Employment Tribunal. If so, consult us, since we have years of experience in this field.

Prevention is often better than cure and your business may need a health check in this area. Do your employees have up to date contracts of employment? Do you have written disciplinary and grievance procedures? Do you have policies guarding against discrimination within your business? Do you know what to do when you have an employee who is on long-term sick leave but who you suspect is malingering?

Unless you can answer “yes” to all of these questions then we suggest you see us sooner rather than later because in the long run it will save you money.
