Wards Solicitors’ specialist employment lawyers – both for business and personal matters – are all now members of the Employment Lawyers Association (ELA) dedicated to promoting best practice in this fast moving and constantly changing area of the law.
The ELA’s 6,000 members are drawn from every branch of the legal profession and include solicitors and barristers acting for both employers and employees, trade unions, the voluntary sector, industry and the judiciary.
Day to day help for employers
Two members of our commercial team, Partner Bridget Juckes and Solicitor Associate Joanne Turner can provide all the advice you need to help ensure you fulfil your legal obligations as an employer including comprehensive advice on how to protect your business in its day to day running.
If things go wrong
And if things go wrong, Partner James Taylor and Solicitor Associate James Murray can offer help and advice on all aspects of dispute resolution.
Quick and effective advice for employees
For private clients, Solicitor Associate Emma Kerry and Solicitor Claire James, as well as James Taylor and James Murray , are here to give fast, effective, level-headed employment advice when it comes to employee problems and how to solve an issue with your employer as quickly as possible.
We have now re-opened our branches to clients but all appointments and visits must be pre-booked to comply with government guidance.
Availability for face-to- face meetings in branches will be limited and remote contact with teams – via phone, email or video call – is preferred wherever possible. Our prime concern remains the safety of our clients and our staff.
Please note that all visitors to our offices must, by law, wear a face covering.
We cannot accept drop-in visits from clients without an appointment being made in advance. If you have documents for us, including for ID certification, please deliver them to our letterbox
How to get in touch:
We look forward to hearing from you. A list of our 11 branches is available here.
Thank you.
