This area covers drafting and negotiating new employment contracts and terms of employment for individuals joining a business or moving roles, including pay, hours, holidays, notice, and restrictive covenants. A solicitor in this field drafts the contract, reviews proposed changes, and advises on the implications of clause wording for pay, benefits, probation, garden leave, and dismissal provisions. They also help ensure compliance with national employment law, minimum standards, and equalities requirements, and handle any related documents such as new-hire handbooks or addenda.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The contract sets binding duties, pay, leave, notice periods and any post-termination restrictions. A solicitor's role includes ensuring enforceable terms, identifying potential risks (such as restrictive covenants or fair redundancy triggers), and advising on protections under employment law and contract law, including safeguards for fixed-term or zero-hours arrangements and the protection of staff rights under relevant legislation.

Tagged solicitor Baden Broadbent

I met Baden to discuss and for him to review the settlement offer I had based on redundancy notice served to me from my current employer. Absolutely fantastic guy, explained everything to me in easy bite sized chunks as the wording is especially in places complicated, but he made that journey for me very easy to digest and process. I felt very comfortable during the engagement and completely satisfied with the final outcome of the meeting and review. I would like to extend my gratitude to Baden personally for helping me through what would have been a daunting experience without his exceptional expertise and help. Thanks again Baden was a pleasure meeting you sir, and I will for sure be also looking to recommend Howard & Over solicitors to friends and family should they ever be looking for recommendations.
