Very few areas of law change and development at the same rate as employment law. These changes and developments can be so dramatic that many employers and employees (and some Lawyers) have struggled to keep abreast of them. This can be very costly.

The employer who is ignorant of the law may have to pay the idle worker he has sacked an astronomical sum - just because he
did not take time to get the procedure right.

The employee who has just been sacked unfairly, may not realise he has a claim against his unreasonable boss, even though
he has been in the job for over a year. He may not know that his boss was breaking the law by insisting he work a 55 hour week.

Employment law is complex. Our Web Site identifies areas for consideration by both employers and employees alike, such as

Unfair and Wrongful Dismissal

Discrimination (sexual/ racial/ religious orientation/ age)

Redundancy Entitlements and Procedures

Employee rights when businesses are transferred

Compromise Agreements

If any of the subjects raised on the web site affect you as an employer or employee, we urge you to contact Richard Mason at Mason Baggott and Garton Solicitors, as soon as possible. Otherwise, it might be too late.
