What we do

Our employment lawyers assist employers and employees to navigate the whole range of employment and health and safety issues. Whether this is bringing or defending a personal grievance in the Employment Relations Authority or Employment Court, providing advice around rights and obligations, or helping with restructuring, we can advise on any employment related matters.

How we can help

We recognise that employment issues are often urgent, and deal with unique and difficult workplace dynamics. We aim to work with our clients to understand their situation and what they want to achieve, then put in place a strategy to achieve that. Once the strategy is set, we push to get the best possible result for our client, and we try to do this in the most efficient way possible. Often this is by negotiation or mediation, but we are experienced in arguing matters before the Employment Relations Authority and Employment Court, and the Court of Appeal.
