Redundancy

Advice on Redundancy

Being made redundant or being put at risk of redundancy can be very stressful. Both employers and employees need advice to be sure that any redundancy process is being conducted properly and fairly.

How can we help?

We aim to offer practical advice about the available options that can be considered during a consultation that can sometimes avoid the necessity of a redundancy.

We advise on the proper criteria for selection and the fair procedure that should be adopted. If a redundancy is unavoidable we can help determine the level and structure of any compensation package.

Employers now often prefer using Compromise Agreements as a method of reaching a binding agreement without the need to go through a formal process. We can advise on the contents and drafting of those agreements and assist with negotiations where agreements cannot be reached.

What will this cost?

We offer a range of funding schemes from fixed fee to no win no fee.

If you are an employee and you believe you have been unfairly dismissed then we can arrange a free assessment meeting to confirm whether your case could be dealt with under a no win no fee agreement or insurance funding.

If you are an employer we offer a free first consultation to discuss the needs of your business under the Law Society’s “Lawyers for business” scheme.

To arrange a meeting then please use our contact form above or contact Ashley Harkus at aharkus@etlp.co.uk or on 0845 60 222 99.
