Laura Darnley’s spotlight was excellent, being very informative and helpful in breaking down what options employers have when it comes to employing EU nationals and breaking down the differences between workers with settled/pre-settled status and those without.
Our award-winning employment lawyers are here to support your business with the legal aspect of this relationship by providing practical and tailored advice on all employment law issues throughout the life cycle of the employment relationship.
Employment law is complex and with regular developments and amendments to legislation, it can be challenging for businesses to stay up to date and remain compliant. Our employment solicitors are here to help navigate your business through challenging employment situations, ensuring your business complies with relevant employment legislation and minimise the risk of employee disputes. Whether you need advice on recruitment, flexible working arrangements, or managing sickness absence, our employment team can advise your business on all aspects of employment law.
Our employment solicitors recognise that employment disputes, such as constructive dismissal, will often be sensitive and highly personalised. By taking the time to understand you and your unique circumstances, our employment specialists can help you find solutions to difficult situations that are in line with your commercial objectives and culture.
