During this unprecedented time the workplace has undergone serious upheaval, with staff working from home, government-backed furlough leave and businesses facing tough redundancy decisions.

We’re committed to provide our services to those in need, whether employee or business. No matter your situation, query or question our experienced team can offer the due guidance, consideration and care.

We’ve answered all the key questions and provided plenty of information on working during the coronavirus crisis below:

Successfully defended claims for discrimination and unfair dismissal

The claim was brought by an employee who felt aggrieved after being dismissed by a start-up company. We were able to persuasively present the case which demonstrated that the dismissal was neither discriminatory, nor unfair. Had the claims succeeded, the business could have gone into administration and so the result was extremely well received by the business.

Achieving a commercial resolution in the face of a complex TUPE situation

We advised a sub-contractor on their TUPE obligations when their contract was taken back in-house on short notice by the main contractor, particularly in relation to dealing with employees where there was a dispute as to whether they were assigned to the service being taken back in-house. We helped our client achieve a commercial resolution.
