James has extensive employment tribunal experience, regularly attending and representing clients on sexual harassment and sex discrimination cases. Read more about James and the employment team.

Our experienced team of solicitors provide impartial and practical employment advice to employees at all levels of employment.

Our solicitors can advise on:

  • Unfair dismissal/discrimination claims
  • Senior employee exit packages
  • Enforceability of restrictive covenants and injunction claims
  • Contracts of employment and disciplinary/grievance procedures
  • Compromise Agreements
  • Tribunal Claims

Our solicitors have particular experience in acting for senior executives, managers and company directors. We regularly offer advice on six figure termination packages for employees with emphasis on advice on loss of pension, bonuses, sale of shares, post termination assistance, announcements about departure and references.

So if you are having a dispute at work, feel that you are being treated differently, have been dismissed unfairly or feel forced to resign, we can assist. We also have considerable experience of representing employees at Employment Tribunals.

If you are offered a compromise agreement, we can provide the independent legal advice required to validate the compromise agreement and negotiate the terms on your behalf where necessary.

In either case, our aim is to make sure you secure right financial package on the best possible terms.

Keep a close eye on our website to stay informed about developments relating to the key changes within legal areas.

This is what one of our clients recently said about our Employment Service:

"I've used James twice as a solicitor and on both occasions his service has been outstanding. He also provides value for money - his excellent rates undervalue the quality of the work he provides. On both occasions I've used him he gave pertinent and very perceptive advice understanding the full extent of the situation and what I wanted to happen. On the first occasion he salvaged a good result from the train crash of a situation. On the second occasion his advice and negotiations on my behalf brought results far exceeding my expectations. I cant recommend James highly enough!"
