Support for your business
Redundancy and Reorganisation
The certainty you need to restructure
As your business evolves, you may need to adapt its original structure to ensure future profitability and growth. We work with a wide range of clients from SMEs to large-scale corporations and can give you the firm, pragmatic advice you need to mitigate risk and meet your goals.
Whether you’re merging and/or acquiring a new company, reallocating & reorganising staff or amending benefits and shares options, we’re here to help. Our team is partner-led, with specialist knowledge and you’ll always know the member of our team you’re talking to.
Proceed with confidence
If you’re considering making changes to your business that will affect your employees’ employment status, you must consult with them first. We can advise you on reorganisations, restructures and redundancies and other changes that impact on terms and conditions of employment, giving you the confidence you need to press ahead.
If you’re selling your business or acquiring another, we can also advise on transfer of service provisions (including TUPE) and protect you from exposure to Employment Tribunal claims and other significant financial liability.
Dealing with redundancies
There are specific reasons for redundancy and we can guide you through the strict procedures you must follow. We know the process can be equally stressful and difficult for employees and employers. Emotions can understandably run high and we’ll give you the confidence to approach the process calmly, with compassion and complete compliance with employment law.
