Employment advise from expert employment law solicitors
Having an experienced employment law solicitor on hand is vital. Why? Because there is a long list of legal rights and responsibilities you must abide by, and ignorance is not a defence!
You can be confident we are fully up to date with the complex regulations and ever-changing legislation, so you don’t need to be.
After taking the time to get to know your business, we’ll put into place all the necessary policies and procedures to protect you. These could include employment contracts tailored to specific job roles, grievance policies and procedures and guidance on hiring and firing.
And if the worse should happen and an employee brings a dispute against you, we’ll be on hand to clearly explain your options so you can make an informed decision about what you should do next.

Protecting your company’s trade secrets and confidential information against the harmful competitive activities of employees and ex-employees is a complex area of law.
While employees are still working for you, you will have substantial protection, but this changes as soon as they leave your employment. Any restrictive covenants should be carefully worded, so they don’t restrict an individual’s freedom to work but protect your business interests.
As experienced employment law Marlow solicitors, we have a wealth of experience advising clients from Marlow and the High Wycombe area on precisely what they need to do to protect their business interests.
Breach of contract, wrongful dismissal, pregnancy discrimination – it doesn’t matter what the dispute is; it could be costly and have a damaging impact on your company’s reputation.
Because we work for both employers and employees as Marlow solicitors, we have a unique insight into how to protect your position best and maximise your chances of defeating the employee’s claim.
We will always provide you with practical, timely and cost-effective advice and will do our utmost to stop the claim from reaching an Employment Tribunal. If the worst should happen, we will be more than happy to represent you.
If your business is in the unfortunate position of reducing your workforce, you need to manage it correctly; otherwise, you could be facing many unfair dismissal claims.
Different procedures apply to individual and collective redundancies, so we’ll inform you on exactly what strategies you need to follow and advise you on areas such as identifying the redundancy pool, applying the selection criteria, and dismissing the employee.
Redundancy should always be the last resort, but if it is your only option, get in touch with the Marlow solicitors, who will put your interests first.
