of conduct. We also assist in preventing employees who leave your practice misusing

your confidential information and unlawfully soliciting your clients. Unlike many of our

are important to solicitors.

hard-earned reputation and reduce the risk of any costly and unwanted litigation.

Why labour over employment law?

Do you worry that your policies and procedures are up-to-date? Are you confident your firm or

practice is compliant with the myriad of employment laws that could affect it? Does the thought of

dealing with disciplinary and grievance issues, redundancies or performance and absence

management fill you with dread?

What if someone could remove these worries for you?When you register for our Employ-Line service, you no longer have to worry. Helping you manage

the full range of employment law needs, our team have vast experience of working with law firm or

legal practice managers like you. We will ensure that your employment contracts, policies and

procedures are both up-to-date and legally compliant. We will also take the headache out of dealing

with the day-to-day employment law issues you will face while running your firm or practice.
