Employment contract advice FAQS

This will depend on what is required for the business. For example, more senior employees may need different contracts compared to junior employees based on their roles and responsibilities. 

It is generally recommended that employment contracts are reviewed fairly regularly, usually every couple of years or so. If there are changes in legislation, it will need to be done in line with these updates. 

They should be given an opportunity to negotiate on some aspects of their contract, however, if it is a legal requirement, this needs to be explained. We always recommend seeking legal advice if there is a dispute so that you are aware of all the options available to you. 

Depending on the severity of the breach and its effect on others and the business, you may wish to deal with the breach informally or through disciplinary procedures. Additionally, for more serious breaches, legal redress can be sought through the courts. 

If you wish to make changes to an existing contract, you will need to discuss and negotiate this with the employee in question, as both must be in agreement with the amendments.

Probate

I contacted Kristen Wood to arrange an appointment in March to talk about my late husbands estate. Kristen had previously handled my father in laws estate in 2021 and we were very pleased with the service received. My husbands estate was quite straightforward and Kristen provided me with an effective way to pursue probate. I received the same great service as before and all was completed at the beginning of May. I would not hesitate to use Eric Robinson again in the future. From start to finish Kristen was professional whilst being sympathetic to my current situation. There would be no hesitation in recommending the Chandlers Ford office simply because the staff and service are first class.

Sale of my flat

Emma helped with the process of selling my flat, it wasn’t the most smoothest of sales (external issues) but she worked hard to get all completed. Emma was great at communicating throughout the process, and supporting and helping me with sale. Thankyou Emma.

Fantastic communication – a smooth and stress-free experience!

We couldn’t be happier with the service we received from Eric Robinson Solicitors. Hazzra Huxford and Sylvia Garcia were both fantastic working on the sale of our property and onward purchase. We exchanged contracts just 6.5 weeks after offers were accepted! The whole experience was smooth and stress free, with the best communication and continuous regular updates we’ve experienced working with a conveyancing solicitor. We would highly recommend Eric Robinson Solicitors.

Eric Robinson Solicitors, solid choice.

Eric Robinson Solicitors has a solid reputation for providing efficient and competent legal services, without inflated pricing. We favoured them when choosing a conveyancing solicitor for the sale of our property and purchase of a new home. Miya Smith at the Winchester office guided us through the process efficiently and with great care, bringing a laser like focus and dealing promptly with a range of issues. We decided not to proceed with one property following the survey and switched to another. The change of direction was accommodated smoothly and between the two properties a wide range of issues were highlighted to us, together with clear options and recommendations. One property had land attached and the services of a commercial land specialist were available when required. We felt well informed about the issues revealed and able to proceed with our eyes open. We are now in our new home and grateful for the very professional service provided. Our particular thanks go to Miya who enhances Eric Robinson’s reputation. Highly recommended.
