Employment and Pensions

What we do

Our employment and pensions group combines the highest quality of technical advice, a deep investment in personal relationships and an effective use of technology.

We provide clients with solutions that balance their legal and commercial requirements, are delivered efficiently and offer real value. We are adaptive to client requirements and tailor our response to achieve the right outcome.

We also offer a short term employment solutions service, run through the DAC Beachcroft People Pool.

What we are known for

We also deal with discrimination, transfer of undertakings and detriment claims in employment tribunals, acting for our corporate clients.

Detailed elements of our services

Across the spectrum of work our purpose-built case-management system ensures a consistency of advice wherever we're working. Recognised experts lead a variety of specialist teams in discrimination and diversity, trade union relations, TUPE and transactional support, business immigration, equal pay and pensions. We advise on partnership and LLP issues.
