Our team advises corporate clients on all and any employment issues they face, helping them achieve their commercial objectives while mitigating risk. Working side-by-side with their own teams, we take time to get to know our clients and understand their business so we can add maximum value whatever the scenario. We are responsive and ensure our advice is always commercial.
We advise employers in all sectors, but we have particular experience working with banks, venture capital providers and other financial services organisations as well as clients in the media sector.
We regularly provide employment advice as part of transactions working with our corporate colleagues, highlighting material employment law risks and mitigating them through the negotiation of appropriate indemnities, warranties and other provisions.
We also advise senior individuals on their own employment situation, providing strategic advice on resolving any issues with their employers, such as negotiating appropriate exit terms by way of a settlement agreement or advising on covenants and other obligations.
Currently, our client’s focus is on the key lockdown and post-lockdown issues that virtually every employer is facing, from issues related to furlough, restructuring and redundancy, how to protect employees from a health and safety perspective and how and when to encourage or require a return to office work. We have also seen an increase in grievances, issues around work stress and employment tribunal litigation reflecting difficult economic times and are assisting a number of clients in robustly defending claims.
