Employment Law
Whether you're an employee facing uncertainty or an employer dealing with a workplace issue, Roach Pittis offers practical, down-to-earth advice to help you understand your rights, your options, and the best way forward.
Employment law is governed by a complex mix of contract law and statutory rights. It can be confusing, especially during stressful moments like dismissal, workplace disputes, or discrimination. Our role is to cut through the legal jargon, provide clear and realistic advice, and help you choose a solution that aligns with your goals.
We’ll work alongside you to assess the situation, explain the legal position, and recommend a course of action, whether that involves formal legal proceedings or a more amicable resolution. If we believe your objectives aren't achievable, we’ll be honest about that too.
If you're facing a workplace issue and want expert, realistic advice from a team that listens and acts in your best interest, we’re here to help.

It is to your advantage to have written terms of Contract in place which protect your interests. Employment Law is a fast moving and complex area of law and it pays to keep employment contracts under regular review.
Our corporate clients range from small businesses faced with difficulties, often because they have little or no formal employment policies, to large companies with human resources department, with whom we work closely. In all cases we focus on providing an individual service and developing a personal relationship with our client.

Employment Law governs relationships in the workplace, for a combination of Contract Law and Statutory rights, with many of these rights having their origins in European Community Law.
Your rights might not always be what they seem. We can advise and explain, in plain English, what your rights are and how you can use them. We specialise in giving practical advice when you need it to help you choose the right course of action.
Roach Pittis can apply its extensive knowledge and experience to help resolve the specific issues you face and provide as much or as little support as you require. We recognise the complexities of employment situations and will analyse the issues and recommend the options available to you. Dependant upon the situation, options may involve legal processes or a solution to avoid legal conflict.
There are always several routes for finding solutions and we like to explore a number of options with you. Before choosing a solution we ensure that you are comfortable with the suggested course of action and that it is the best option to achieve your objectives. If we feel a client’s objectives are unobtainable, we will say so.
