Employment disputes

hero-image-0

We cover the full spectrum of employment-related disputes: from wrongful dismissal, sensitive discrimination and whistleblowing disputes to confidential information theft, enforcement of restrictive covenants and industrial relations issues.

We have also seen a marked increase in collective employee disputes which plays to our team’s strengths in handling multi-claimant high-value litigation.

Our employment litigation lawyers does not only advise you on the litigation itself but will also help you navigate the heightened regulatory, media and stakeholder scrutiny of today’s employment landscape.

Of course, our main aim is to help you stay out of the courtroom. But, if it comes to that, we are perfectly placed to assist you. We will match the right blend of skills to the litigation and track progress to budget, ensuring our advice is both cost-effective and of the highest quality.
