Employment Law Advice

Employment Contract Advice

When starting a new job, it’s important to understand any restrictions that your employment contract may contain. You should also be aware of the various rights and employee benefits that you will be receiving.

Our dedicated employment solicitors are able to provide specialist advice on all types of employment contracts, service agreements, directors’ contracts or consultancy agreements. We are able to guide you through the intricacies of your employment contract, providing sound advice to ensure that you are well-informed before starting your new role.

Our experts provide practical guidance on the day-to-day issues that can affect you during your employment, such as sick leave and pay, parental rights and the Working Time Regulations. We will also discuss any matters which might affect you after your employment has ended as these may have a significant impact on your future career.

Given the number of disputes which can arise on the termination of employment, it is vital that you get advice before the agreement is entered into. Our solicitors can advise on whether any problem clauses should be removed or altered by negotiation.

If you are seeking specialist employment law advice, please do not hesitate to get in touch. We are able to provide advice and guidance on your contract or any other issue relating to your employment. Please call 01483 887766, email us or start a live chat.
