Employment Law Solicitors
Employment disputes often arise in high-pressure circumstances, where professional standing, income, and business stability are directly affected. Matters involving dismissal, discrimination, redundancy, contractual disagreements, or whistleblowing allegations demand careful legal judgment to prevent unnecessary exposure and to achieve a fair and controlled outcome.
At Lyon Croft Law, we advise on all aspects of contentious employment law, providing clear and commercially aware guidance to both employees and employers. We represent clients in Employment Tribunal proceedings, settlement discussions, and dispute resolution processes, managing each case with focus, discretion, and strategic intent. Our objective is to resolve disputes efficiently while protecting our clients’ rights, reputation, and long-term interests.
Core Services
Employment Dispute Support
We advise employees and employers on a wide range of workplace disputes, providing clear, strategic guidance from the earliest stages of a disagreement through to formal proceedings. Our focus is on protecting your legal position, managing risk, and achieving a resolution that is commercially and personally proportionate.
Employment Tribunal Claims
Where disputes cannot be resolved informally, we provide comprehensive representation before the Employment Tribunal. Our support includes assessing prospects of success, preparing claims and responses, managing procedural requirements, and representing clients at hearings. We also advise on settlement opportunities before and during tribunal proceedings to minimise disruption and cost.
Unfair Dismissal and Redundancy Disputes
We act in claims arising from dismissal and redundancy, advising on whether processes have been conducted lawfully and fairly. Our work includes challenging procedurally flawed or discriminatory dismissals, defending employer claims, and representing clients in tribunal proceedings where required.
Settlement Agreements
Settlement agreements can offer a controlled and effective way to resolve employment disputes. We advise on the legal and practical implications of proposed terms, support negotiations to improve outcomes, and ensure agreements are properly documented to provide certainty and finality for all parties.
Discrimination and Workplace Harassment
Claims involving discrimination or harassment require careful, sensitive handling alongside a robust legal strategy. We advise on claims under equality legislation, assess liability and evidential risk, and pursue or defend claims seeking appropriate remedies, including compensation where unlawful treatment has occurred.
Contractual Disputes and Restrictive Covenants
We advise on disputes arising from employment contracts, including unpaid remuneration, notice disputes, and post-termination obligations. Our team assists with enforcing or defending restrictive covenants, confidentiality provisions, and non-compete clauses, ensuring contractual rights are protected both during and after employment.
