How we can help businesses

There are many ways in which Lawrite Solicitors can help businesses with legal matters.

Help with employment law

The legal team available to you at Lawrite Solicitors are the ideal advisers to any business that employs people.

We can set up your contracts and procedures to manage staff, advise on HR and solve issues that arise.

As well as providing the legal know-how to ensure that your contracts and employment documents are right, we can assist in handling disciplinary procedures and grievances.

Investigating allegations by or against staff and chairing meetings, or just advising the board of directors on their potential liabilities is something we have done for our employer clients.

We have established that we are experts in providing pragmatic cost effective solutions to avoid the risk of Tribunal claims.

We can help businesses minimise liabilities and resolve problems in the most efficient and cost effective way we can.

We can represent you if you are taken to an Employment Tribunal by employees.

If you want to negotiate the termination of someone’s contract then we have many years of experience in negotiating staff departures. Call us in at the earliest stage.

Help with business start–ups

If you start a business or are considering joining someone in business, we can advise you on the best way to do it. We are experienced in setting up companies, drawing up shareholders' agreements, director’s contracts and also contractor’s agreements. We can also advise on setting up partnerships, or Limited Liability Partnerships. We can help you decide on what is the best way to set up your business and help you make it happen.

Commercial agreements, terms and conditions of business and all aspects of on-going company and corporate law are within our area of expertise. We can work with top barristers and other advisers to bring the best level of advice to solve any business legal issues.

If you are a director or a partner who needs confidential advice on the terms of any proposed partnership or directorship agreement that you are offered do not hesitate to contact us for an appointment.

Lawrite Solicitors' managing director Martin Phillips and other lawyers who work with him have experience of running businesses of different kinds apart from legal practice.

We understand what it’s like to run a business and give practical effective advice based on many years' real life experience.

We are experts in all the enquiries and process you need to follow and will look after your best interests while understanding exactly what business people want when trying to close a deal.
