General employment disputes for individuals

We provide specialist advice for employees on all legal aspects of their relationship with their employer. As experts in the fast moving world of employment law we can help you with all aspects of any employment claim to achieve the best possible outcome.

We advise and represent both senior and junior employees in relation to all employment issues, including those involving:

• minority shareholder rights
• commission or bonus entitlements
• shares and share options
• restrictive covenants, including in connection with team moves
• duties owed (including confidentiality, fidelity and fiduciary duties)
• redundancy and TUPE
• bullying
• flexible working and fixed term working
• maternity, paternity and dependant care entitlements
• equal pay
• data protection and workplace monitoring
• permanent health insurance

We work with a wide range of clients and act for senior executives within the banking, financial services and insurance industries, as well as editors, solicitors, football managers, academics amongst many others.

We’re one of a relatively small number of employment law teams that is highly recommended in The Legal 500     .

Our team is praised for its expertise, client service and personal manner. Clients note our "excellent client focus" and "client care, they are happy to discuss matters and think of commercial solutions."

Our team of specialist employment lawyers has a huge range of experience. We also work closely with our colleagues in other departments to provide practical and comprehensive advice which is focused on your individual needs and circumstances. 

Recent cases include one involving two employees who were sued for the return of seven figure bonuses until the case against them collapsed, and another involving an employee who lost her permanent health insurance when her employment was terminated and eventually received compensation of several thousand pounds. 

We understand that bringing a claim against an employer is stressful and provide appropriate support to employees through what can be a difficult process.

The legal costs of many of our clients are covered by legal expense insurance, which is often included with household and motor insurance policies.
