Employment Law for Employers

What our employment lawyers do

 

DMH Stallard’s employment lawyers seek to combine technical excellence with an in-depth knowledge of our client organisations. We work hard to understand our clients' needs so we can build long term mutually productive relationships with them.

Our expertise and experience of cost-effective project and case management enables us to help plan and guide our clients on strategic and complex issues as well as working with them on day-to-day operational matters. We handle a high volume of Employment Tribunal litigation, overwhelmingly for employers, usually conducting our own advocacy in the Tribunal.
