Thomas Eggar is one of the leading law firms in the South. The firm has sixty partners and serves both commercial and private client markets. It is the largest firm to gain the Law Society's quality mark, Lexcel, a considerable achievement for a London and regional firm located in four offices. The employment team consists of 12 full time solicitors plus their dedicated support staff. Clients range from small businesses to very large utility companies, listed public companies, airlines, media companies, individuals and a significant number of educational establishments.

The employment law team takes a commercial approach to the challenges faced by employers and provides a comprehensive and flexible service to clients.

Examples of some of the type of work you may wish to use Thomas Eggar are listed below. Should you retain Thomas Eggar for matters on which you have already consulted our helpline, with your authorisation, we will pass on them copies of your relevant enquiries to the helpline and associated documentation, and we will work in partnership to provide a seamless service and to then assist you in acting on any recommendations they may make for the future. You will remain a BusinessHR client, but agreements regarding fees for Thomas Eggar's services, and payment arrangements, will be made directly with them.

Examples of such projects may include:

• guidance and letters in implementing a salary sacrifice scheme ie legal implications of the scheme and addressing the implications in writing to employees
• corporate support for acquisitions and mergers including drafting relevant letters to employees
• advising on all tribunal matters including drafting defence, preparing statements and bundles, and representation at tribunal (this may be on a fixed fee or on a time basis)
• negotiating settlements and drafting settlement agreements
• seminars and workshops - either hosted by the firm alone or in conjunction with other organisations on topical employment issues.
