Employment
Professional service with a personal touch.With ever-increasing regulation, employment law raises complex legal issues. At Charsley Harrison LLP in Windsor, we give clear-cut, realistic advice to employers and employees in Windsor, Ascot, Maidenhead, Slough and Reading and further afield.
You do not need to engage a lawyer, but if you do try to sort matters out yourself, there are risks. For example:
- An employer with excellent grounds to make someone redundant might end up facing an expensive tribunal hearing if they do not follow the correct procedures.
- An employee might agree to an exit package without taking advice and receive much less than he or she is entitled to.
- Our employment solicitor Paul Owen advises small- and medium-sized businesses, PLCs and employees at every level of seniority.
