Redundancy

Our Employment solicitors advise both employers and employees in relation to the redundancy process and Settlement Agreements.

How we can help

Our Employment lawyers advise businesses and organisations regarding redundancy procedure including advising in relation to appropriate selection matrices. Our Employment lawyers will draft all staff communications where required and will advise in connection with the handling of consultations and appeals, to ensure legal compliance and in order to avoid unfair dismissal and related claims.

Our Employment lawyers also advise individuals who have been notified that they are at risk of redundancy, those who are going through the consultation period and those going through the appeal procedure. Our involvement at an early stage assists if matters are likely to become contentious.

Our solicitors will advise as to the prospects of unfair and/ or wrongful dismissal claims from the employer and employee prospective. We will prepare Settlement Agreements on behalf of employers, where appropriate, and can provide employees with advice so as to understand how much redundancy pay or what kind of redundancy package they may be entitled to when presented with such an agreement or during the course of the redundancy procedure generally.

If matters do become contentious, our Employment lawyers can guide you through the tribunal procedure, draft appropriate documentation and assist in negotiation where necessary.
