Employment

This section has a broad scope and firms can submit a wide range of workplace related matters, both contentious and non-contentious.   In terms of disputes, work can include Employment Tribunal claims relating to discrimination, unfair dismissal, equal pay or employee status. It can also include litigation before the higher courts relating to team moves or restrictive covenant. Firms are also recognised for their advisory work on matters such as TUPE, redundancies, gig-economy matters, senior executive issues and policy and HR training. This table covers all of Northern Ireland and contains the leading law firms and lawyers in Belfast and elsewhere.
