Our Expertise

Whether you need advice on day to day employment issues or a one off specialist opinion we have the expertise you need.

Advisory

Employment law is a rapidly developing area. The Employment team at JCB solicitors can help ensure you remain compliant throughout the employment relationship. We understand that every business is unique and tailor our services to your specific needs, as and when you need it.

Equality

Equality legislation is detailed and complex setting out employees’ rights and employer’s duties in respect of equality and discrimination in the workplace. The legal obligations now differ substantially between Northern Ireland and the rest of the UK as well as the Republic of Ireland. With members of our team qualified and experienced in all three jurisdictions, not only can we work with you to ensure compliance but we can help you stay compliant in all three jurisdictions.

Contentious

Our team will help you try and avoid disputes as far as possible. However, if you find yourself in an employment dispute we can advise and represent you to ensure you achieve the best possible outcome.

Commercial

All employers go through periods of change. Our team can help you navigate the complex employment law issues that can arise in mergers and acquisitions, insourcing and outsourcing arrangements and tenders.

Data Protection and Cyber risk

Emerging technology and wide ranging European legislative reform makes Data Protection and cyber risk one of the most rapidly evolving areas of law. Large corporates, SMEs, charitable organisations and public bodies alike face challenges in keeping up to date with developments in this area.

Public and Administrative Law / Charity Law

Public bodies have powers, duties and responsibilities which affect individuals, communities, businesses and other organisations. We advise public authorities and office holders of their public/administrative law obligations. We can offer expert analysis of whether public bodies have acted outside their powers and whether maladministration may have occurred.
