Where redundancies are considered it is important for employers to seek advice from specialist employment solicitors to ensure they are following best practice. Although many employers will have perfectly legitimate reasons for making redundancies, it is still important that employers follow a reasonable procedure which involves consultation, a fair basis for selection and consideration of alternatives before arriving at the decision to make employees redundant.

From the outset we will give you a clear indication as to the level of costs you are likely to incur, whether you require full assistance during all stages of the process or you require a less hands on approach. We can also offer advice on ways in which you can prevent Employment Tribunal claims from progressing in the event of a dispute through Compromise Agreements.
