Employee Pay and Benefits

When you need to negotiate your pay and benefits, or you’re in a dispute with your employer, good legal advice will put you on a firm footing.

Employment solicitors: Expert legal advice on your pay and benefits

There are a range of issues that can arise regarding your pay and benefits at work. Your contract should set out how much you will be paid, and on what date, plus outline any other benefits. In addition, there are laws which relate to pay and benefits that may be relevant to your situation.

Our pay and benefits services

Our employment law specialists can advise you on:

  • whether any incentive scheme is governed by your contract and if so, what the terms mean for you
  • claiming back pay when you realise you’ve been underpaid
  • the terms of your pay or bonus
  • whether certain terms are contractual or discretionary
  • whether a scheme is transferable with your contract on a TUPE transfer
  • your rights if you feel you’ve been discriminated against, for instance, in the exercise of discretion on a bonus scheme
  • navigating your way through a grievance process
  • taking your employer to an employment tribunal, should you wish to take it to this stage and it cannot be resolved in another way.

The team is always keen to assist, providing articulate and accessible legal advice.

I have been told my property has development potential. What do I do?

If you’ve been contacted by a developer or a land promoter regarding a potential development to your property, you may wish to consider granting an option agreement or a promotion agreement. An option agreement is made between the landowner and the developer, where it is intended that the developer will apply for planning permission and requires an option to buy the property. A land promotion agreement is used where a developer agrees to apply for planning permission and will market the property for sale on the open market once planning permission has been obtained. This is usually in return for a proportion of the net sale proceeds. The law on this is very complex and you will need specialist advice.
