    This area covers how employers manage staffing when business needs change, including redundancies and workforce restructuring. A solicitor specialises in advising on redundancy procedures, consultation requirements, selecting employees for redundancy, and documenting outcomes. They draft and check redundancy notices, handle leave and severance calculations, assist with redeployment and fair process, and represent clients in any necessary ACAS talks or tribunal claims arising from business-driven job losses. The work centers on lawful, timely, and properly managed transitions in response to company needs.

    “I was introduced to this company through my union and from day one I knew I was in good hands with my case. Hanna Mitchell was absolutely amazing explaining everything to me on how my case would be handled, she kept me informed with what was happening and what she needed from me. Her communication was second to none and the outcome exceeded my expectations and I can’t thank her enough . So thank you very much.”

    “Great service form start to finish. With the help from Hannah Ross and Sarah Sowden, they managed maternity cover and a very tricky and slow opposition. All whilst being considerate of my incurring costs and an emotional and stressful situation. For me however, it's always the human approach they take and for this, I'd happily always recommend to anyone and everyone. ”
