Employment Law

People are often considered the most important asset in a business so our employment law solicitor team, work hand in hand with our HR team to provide an end-to-end service around the employee lifecycle.

If we get things right in the first place, then it can greatly reduce the risk of costly bills from employment tribunals. However, if the worst should happen, we’ve got you!

Our solicitors work with a wide range of clients from SME’s to household names.

There are on average 1200 employment law changes a year without the raft of new legislation that can hit us with a government change. Our solicitors will not just tell you the law but will help you with pragmatic commercial decision making to ensure that you can focus on running your business.

Employment Law representation

When a claim form arrives from the tribunal either via the post or by email it is a very worrying time for a business owner. Successfully defending a claim is not just about having done all the right things in your business but understanding the law and how it applies in these situations. We are here to ensure you understand the claim and the strategy in defending it. We can hold your hand or take over the day to day running of the case so you can continue to focus on the success of your business.

Employment Law advice

You will often hear us say that employment relationships are great when they are going well but when they go wrong they can do downhill rapidly, just like being married. We work closely with the HR team to ensure that you get the best advice and that when we give advice, we give you risk based options that consider the possible outcomes.

Contracts and Policies

Drafting documents that protect parties is not only important but vital for a successful business. Our team of solicitors will ensure that documents are drafted to fit your business and industry sector so they are watertight for all involved.

At Sekoya, our HR and employment law teams work together to bring you the service of an outsourced HR consultancy and solicitors firm rolled into one providing a seamless service.
