Employment Law

Each of us spend a great deal of our everyday lives at work and so it is vital that we are happy in our jobs. The laws and regulations that apply to relationships between employers and employees are complicated and often confusing. Those laws and regulations are also increasing noticeably. If you do not understand your rights as an employee, you may become unhappy in your work. Equally, if an employer fails to understand or respect the rights of employees, the business could suffer.

At Purtill Solicitors, we provide our employer and employee clients with expert legal advice about employment law in Ireland, to ensure the workplace is legally compliant, stress free and is, therefore, allowed to become successful. Our employment lawyers deliver practical and commercial solutions to a broad range of private and public and organisations in Ireland.

To employers, faced with ever-increasing compliance obligations, we offer a full compliance business health check and best practice guidelines. We provide a suite of the legal documents and procedures, allowing you to concentrate on the growth and running of your business. This preventative approach helps employers avoid costly employment law claims, before they emerge.

To employees with workplace difficulties, whether they relate to contracts of employment, unfair dismissal, redundancy, personal injury, bullying or harassment in the workplace, we provide clear expert legal advice and help to secure and enforce your employment law rights. We provide legal representation to employees at internal workplace investigations and hearings, as well as in employment law venues such as the Labour Court, the Employment Appeals Tribunal and the Civil Courts.
