LITIGATION
Civil litigation is the method of resolving
disputes or claims between individuals, companies, local authorities
and government departments.
Generally such matters fall into two categories.
One is based on contract being an agreement between two or
more parties and the other is based on a civil wrong caused
by one party to another either deliberately or negligently.
The range of disputes based on contract can vary from the
relatively minor case of the purchase of defective items such
as an electric kettle to a multi million pound claim arising
as a result of penalty clauses in a building contract. Civil
wrongs include cases of personal injury and damage to property
and reputation.
If you are involved in a dispute with another
individual or company we can advise you on your chances of
success and the possible value of your claim. We can negotiate
on your behalf and if necessary commence or defend proceedings
which, according to the subject matter and the amount of the
claim, will be dealt with in either the County Court or the
High Court.
EMPLOYMENT LAW EMPLOYMENT
LAW
We are able to advise employers on a variety
of topics relating to the conduct of their business in so
far as it affects their work force including statutory requirements
such as working conditions, liability insurance, PAYE, national
insurance and pensions, contracts of employment, redundancy,
dismissal, equal pay and discrimination.
Many of these matters apply equally to employees
and we are able to advise and represent either party before
Industrial Tribunals particularly in cases relating to redundancy
and unfair dismissal.
We can also advise on the rights of employees
following the sale of a business and the employment implications
of purchasing a business.
