This area covers how employers organise and offer regular, predictable working hours and patterns within employment contracts, including fixed shifts, rosters, and the rights and limits around changes to hours. A solicitor practising in this area drafts, reviews and negotiates contracts and policies that set or adjust working patterns, advises on statutory entitlements, and helps resolve disputes when expectations about hours, overtime or rest breaks are at issue. The work is shaped by statutes such as the Employment Rights Act, the Working Time Regulations and the flexible-working framework, and by guidance from bodies like ACAS.

“I found working with Amanda great from the get go. She was realistic about timings, able to assist to help meet my goals, with guidance which meant things were done right to protect me longterm as well as within the immediate situation with clear communication throughout. I felt that I could trust her judgement and that she listened well to my needs explaining the details to ensure I understood. The meetings we had were professional yet friendly and offices well presented in a lovely location. Quote was slightly higher than other local firms, but for the service delivered worth it & would certainly use them again (Amanda in particular).”

What Predictable Working Patterns clients highlight
“Very helpful advice from Gemma surrounding quite a complex employment dispute. In just 3 hours she was able to review my case and provide an in-person meeting. I felt she really took the time to answer anything I had to ask professionally and was very approachable. She was completely impartial and honest about prospects and what to do next. She even included some very helpful information post-payment. I must add that I honestly felt everyone here was trying their absolute best to provide what they could within the time I was able to afford Also must mention Holly and lucy who were also beyond helpful in assisting me from start to end. An excellent experience all round!”
