Senior executives and professionals face particular employment law challenges that can seriously affect their careers.
As a senior executive, your contract is likely to be more complicated than a standard employee’s. For example, it may include restrictive covenants that can limit your options when you leave the company.
Pay and rewards structures are usually more complicated for senior executives too.
It’s also important to get legal advice at an early stage if you face disciplinary or capability issues. The same applies if you’re facing restructuring or redundancy.
Professionals are also closely regulated by different governing bodies. You could be subject to restrictions, suspended or banned from practicing your profession if you fail to meet their standards.
If you are a whistleblower or have suffered from discrimination we can advise you on your options. We’ll work with you to achieve the result you want.
Our solicitors can give you the specialist employment law advice you need so you’re informed about your choices, especially if disputes arise.
