A summary of the employment policies in the '24 general election
From start-ups to PLCs, long-established manufacturers to emerging tech companies, from regional enterprises to international operators, our vast depth of expertise and experience is capable of meeting the diverse needs of varied businesses. We gain an understanding of the drivers behind your organisation and are able to assemble the best team of people from our deep pool of talent. We take a firm commercial and pragmatic approach, with a clear focus on delivering the outcomes you require in the most appropriate and cost-effective way.
Meeting the needs of those operating in the built environment sector requires a vast array of specialist and complementary skills. Over many years we have invested in building one of the largest and most experienced teams in the North, which works with a diverse range of major clients across the country. So whatever your needs - as a national house builder, commercial or industrial developer, social housing provider, local authority, rural landowner, investor, leisure operator, tenant, land-and-property-owning charity, or supermarket - we've got you covered.
Providing advice to those operating across healthcare requires a very high level of specialism and expertise. For example, our clinical negligence specialists are one of a handful of teams on the national NHS Resolution panel. Our commercial experts are leaders in the fields of PFI management and procurement. Our healthcare employment lawyers are well-versed in the people management challenges of one of the world's largest employers. Our property professionals can assist with the opportunities and challenges which the healthcare estate presents. These specialist skills, and more, are applied across a wide spectrum of the healthcare sector, including working with Trusts and CCGs, doctors and dentists, charitable organisations and private providers.
Those working in the public and third sectors operate in an often sensitive environment. They can be under significant scrutiny, as they use limited resources to try to achieve maximum impact and benefit. So whether working with educational establishments, local authorities or blue light services, with charities or social enterprises, our teams are highly experienced in providing a robust, efficient and effective service.
Private client lawyers are involved when we are planning for the future – succession planning and wills, pre-nups, partnership agreements – or when dealing with the worst – divorce, disputes, losing a loved one. Our specialist teams are as sensitive as they are skilled, and help guide you through these complex and emotional times. They combine this with a steely determination and depth of experience which gives you the confidence you are in the best possible hands.

Applying for a visa is a complex process. On this dedicated hub, our immigration experts have cut through the mountains of regulation. We present clear answers to the frequently asked questions of those who want to move to the UK to work or study, and of businesses wishing to recruit individuals from overseas.
