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.

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.
