Business protection
As a professional entity, it is essential to lay firm groundwork for the protection of your business’s commercial interests and data. Many legal issues and disputes can be avoided or halted early on simply by having a specialist solicitor to provide comprehensive advice and legal drafting skills. Our business protection expertise includes:
- Protecting confidential information and intellectual property;
- Recovering company property;
- Injunctions; and
- Claims for damages and accounts of profits.
Dismissal and severance
Termination of an employment contract should always be done thoughtfully in line with written policies and the employee’s contract of employment. If the employee has brought a complaint against you for whatever reason, one option may be to offer a settlement agreement which formally ends their employment, usually in return for a sum of money and the promise of confidentiality. We can provide extensive advice in relation to settlement agreements, as well as:
- Negotiating severance terms;
- Garden leave; and
- Protecting business assets.
