Employment

We’re renowned for consistent excellence in representing government departments, public bodies and Chief Constables in employment law. We also use our top-tier expertise to support national retailers, service providers and blue-chip financial institutions.

We have the advantage of having first-hand knowledge of the commercial issues facing you – many of our barristers had careers in-house before joining the Bar.

With your reputation and public accountability always front of mind, we’re quick to consider the commercial and reputational impact of employment issues. We offer the highest levels of integrity and discretion, so you can trust that we have your best interests at heart.

Known for being  approachable, efficient and pragmatic, our experts appear in Employment Tribunals and other courts up to Supreme Court level. Many of our Employment Law barristers are qualified to accept instructions directly (see Direct Access).

We can also help to draft and review contracts of employment, staff handbooks, internal policies and other documentation. Additionally, we offer in-house training on the latest developments in Employment Law and HR matters.

Our expertise is showcased as many of the team are authors of the Employment Tribunal Handbook, and also produce a regular employment law update “Five from 5” which is published by Bloomsbury.
