Contracts, Agreements, Pay and Benefits

Contracts, agreements, pay and benefits affect almost everyone and we can advise you about all these important employment matters. We’re able to provide detailed guidance about restrictions (also known as restrictive covenants) placed on you by a former employer so that you’re unable to compete against them. We can help you to negotiate these clauses and advise you on your obligations.

We also review employment contracts, director’s service or consultancy agreements.

We can help when it comes to your entitlement to family-related leave including maternity, paternity and adoption leave and pay, time off to care for dependents and your right to request flexible working.

We frequently advise on Compromise Agreements which can help an employer and an employee to part on mutually acceptable terms.
