Employees in a business transfer
Get advice on the employment issues that arise when a business changes hands or activities are transferred.
- Your circumstances and documents are the starting point
- Free initial conversation about your matter
- Further work and price agreed separately
We start with your circumstances.
The commercial transaction and the position of affected employees are related but distinct questions. We review the planned transfer and relevant employment documents to identify what needs closer consideration. Depending on the circumstances and our ability to accept the engagement, the advice may be for a buyer, seller or affected employee.
How we can help.
Review employment issues in a planned transfer.
Advise on agreements, changes and employee information.
Clarify questions raised by an affected employee.
Before the next step.
Can you help with an existing matter?
You can contact us even if the matter is already underway. Briefly describe what has happened, what you want help with and any deadline. We then clarify whether we can take on the task and what it should cover.
Is the first conversation free?
Yes. The initial conversation is free and helps clarify your situation and needs. If you want further advice, we agree its scope and price separately.
What does further advice cost?
This depends on the task. After the initial conversation, the scope and price are agreed before you decide whether to proceed.
Shall we look at it together?
Tell us about your situation. The first conversation is free.
