Legal Shield for Employers
Employment and HR is a wide-ranging area of law with huge implications for employers. Staying on top of the rules and staff needs while running a business can be incredibly time consuming. Yet, getting it wrong can risk huge costs as well as the reputation of a business. We’re here to protect your business and give you peace of mind, so you can focus on the strategy and building a successful business.
How Legal Advice Helps You
Regular, on-demand, and proactive support protects your business against legal action and the costly disruption of ineffective HR management. Clients accessing regular HR & Employment support can avoid the stress and expense of tribunal claims.
Our popular Legal Shield package gives you peace of mind at a fixed cost. We also offer ad-hoc additional support when you need it, start up packages, coaching, and training.
Legal Shield Packages
The aim of Legal Shield is to help you identify obstacles and risks, and then provide practical solutions.
When you need to make a decision regarding your employees or anything which affects them, you benefit from our Employment & HR expertise. You will have a dedicated advisor who will get to know you, your business, and your team inside and out.
Your Legal Shield package will be detemined by your business, so you pay for what you need.
Make It Yours
Legal Shield packages can vary from these standard types, depending on your business. It all depends on the size of your firm, the size of your team, the work you do, and how much internal HR & legal support you already have.
