We're proactive

We don’t just look after you, we look out for you.  That means we bring you insights, advice and keep you up to date on all kinds of legal matters so you can keep ahead.

We’re expert-led

We match a member of the team with the right expertise to every client, who will invest time getting to know you, who will look after your interests and ensure you have access to the whole firm when you need it.

We talk your language

The legal and financial matters might be complex, but we aim to keep things straightforward and explain everything in terms that are relevant to you.

Overview

Redundancy legal advice

It may be the first time you’ve been made redundant and you just don’t know what to expect. Or maybe you’ve been there before and this time your employer doesn’t seem to be following the process properly? If you’ve been selected for redundancy, it’s important to get advice quickly because there are strict legal deadlines which must be kept to. 

Our redundancy legal services

Our employment team are experts in the law on redundancy. We can advise and support you wherever you are in the redundancy process. We can help you with:

  • explaining to you the redundancy process and your rights
  • we can talk to your employer for you and give you practical advice about how you should approach meetings with your employer
  • putting forward other suggestions to your employer, as part of your redundancy consultation 
  • look at suitable alternative employment at the company
  • dispute your redundancy 
  • conduct legal proceedings for unfair dismissal, if you choose
  • investigate compensation and entitlements 
  • negotiate exit packages and settlement agreements
  • help with TUPE – if part of the business is being sold or outsourced to another company. The laws are complex – make sure you get specialist legal advice.

How we can help

If you’d like to meet one of our experts for a confidential, no obligation chat, please get in touch.

We have offices across Cambridgeshire, Essex and Hertfordshire, but we can help you wherever you are in England and Wales.
