Employment Law Solicitors
Employment law is a complex legal area in Ireland. Companies of all sizes require specialist and practical legal advice and guidance on a wide range of Irish Employment Law issues.
Lavelle Coleman has an experienced professional team of employment law solicitors with expertise in all areas of Employment and Labour Law. We believe that it is essential, for both employers and employees, that the correct contractual and policy documents are in place, with full regard to the array of employee rights and entitlements.
Lavelle Coleman's Employment Law Solicitors Dublin team is highly experienced in all aspects of Employment Law in Ireland and Europe. With a growing body of Employment Legislation, employment legal advice needs to be informed and current so as to ensure that our clients receive advice that is both practical and accurate.
In the current business environment, there has been a marked increase in the level of contentious disputes arising in the area of dismissals, equality claims, bullying and harassment cases and complaints to the Labour Court and Labour Relations Commission.
Lavelle Coleman Employment Law Solicitors Dublin have recently provided both employers and employees with legal advice on the implementation of salary reductions, redundancies and a variation of other contractual terms.
We represent clients in cases before the Labour Court, the Labour Relations Commission, the Employment Appeals Tribunal and the Equality Tribunal. Our experience also includes representing clients in relation to bullying and harassment cases.
We advise clients on all aspects of employment law and human resources, drafting and reviewing employment contracts and putting grievance procedures in place. We also advise on the pension schemes and employee benefits and advise in the establishment of pension schemes and the re-organisation of exiting schemes.
Our Employment Law solicitors advise on the drafting of trust documentation for defined contribution/ defined pension schemes and on all aspects of pension scheme regulatory compliance.
We also advise clients on industrial relations, including collective redundancies and redundancy packages.
Our specialist team of highly experienced employment law solicitors in Dublin is headed by Marc Fitzgibbon, who is a member of the Law Society of Ireland's Employment & Equality Law Committee and European Employment Lawyers Association.
