Frequently asked questions
When should I contact an employment solicitor?
As early as possible. Many problems can be prevented or limited with timely advice, and some deadlines in employment law are short.
My employer has stopped paying my salary. What can I do?
Stopping salary is only allowed in specific situations. We assess whether your employer is entitled to do so and can claim the salary on your behalf.
Is a restrictive covenant always valid?
No. Whether a restrictive covenant is valid and enforceable depends on the type of contract, the wording and your interests. We review the clause for you.
Can I be suspended without a reason?
Suspension must be justified and proportionate. We advise you on your rights during a suspension and on the steps you can take.
Do you also advise employers?
Yes. We advise employers on contracts, sickness, performance, reorganisations and dismissal.
