Employment

Legal Studio has extensive experience in employment cases

For employers, it is extremely important to ensure that employees are valued and treated fairly within the workplace. If they are denied the rights they are entitled to, they may pursue an employment claim.

Employers must ensure they know their obligations and follow the correct procedures so that claims are prevented. Where an issue does arise, Legal Studio can assist in bringing, or in defending, a claim. 

We have experience in this area from the perspective of the employer, employee, directors and shareholders. This experience includes, but is not limited to:
  • Reorganisations and redundancies;
  • Recruitment and employment contracts;
  • Mental health in the workplace;
  • Tribunal claims;
  • Enforcing restrictive covenants and injunction claims;
  • Dismissals, dismissal or grievance procedures; and
  • Settlement agreements.

COMMON CLAIMS CAN INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO:

  • A disciplinary procedure that you are not sure about;
  • A difficult employee that is causing issues within the workplace;
  • An employer wanting to dismiss an employee but unsure about the grounds;
  • Creating a settlement agreement for an employee and enforcing it; or
  • A discrimination claim brought against a business.
