Katharine deals with all aspects of Employment Law but specialises in providing non contentious employment advice and compliance to both small business ventures and larger companies. In particular, she is experienced in giving advice to companies concerning starting out in industry and reorganisation and can draft a wide range of company documentation in accordance with the individual needs of the business.
Katharine specialises in making sure that employers have all their employment law and HR requirements in place and up to date. Her pleasant manner is combined with her knowledge of employment law issues from a legal perspective so that she makes sure that employers have maximum protection and immediate support in connection with all problems which they may encounter on a day to day basis.
Like all Employment Law Solicitors, and like a very large number of employees and business owners alike, I’m royally fed up of the word ‘furlough’. A few weeks ago, it was a word I barely used and had to concentrate to spell. Nowadays, I can touch type it to perfection after typing it at least…
I love a good podcast and, at the moment, whilst working from home, it has become a bit of a luxury to listen to a podcast during my lunch break (and after work) and hear multiple voices within the house. After all, following the introduction of the newest restrictions from the Government, it is nice…
So, as within all areas of society, coronavirus is having a large impact on various areas of law. Even in the last 24 hours, there have been further developments which affect Solicitors and the general public alike, which include: Family Law: Unfortunately, there are reports that applications for divorce are likely to rise over coming…
Crikey! The world is changing before our eyes. Only a few weeks ago, a typical commute to work on the train was an environment full of people in various states of boredom, tiredness or, alternatively, being noticeably transfixed with their phones or Kindles. Now, in the midst of the coronavirus outbreak, it is a place…
I’ve not written much about coronavirus previously because, frankly, whilst my blogs tend to be topical, it felt overly opportunistic. However, in the last 7 days, the number of calls and emails I’ve received from concerned employers and, in recent days, from employers with fears of members of staff displaying potential symptoms, has sky-rocketed. Overall,…
Quite topical this one. Put briefly, reports of coronavirus spreading to new countries (and expanding within those countries) are ever increasing and it seems slightly inevitable that the World Health Organisation (WHO) may well declare the virus to constitute a worldwide pandemic in the coming days. But, quite simply, there is little use in making…
One of my closest friends, and ongoing victim of my slight obsession with Parkrun, is currently involved in planning events at Liverpool John Moores University’s Christian Union. Naturally, within recent weeks, this has led to many discussions about the Bible within our shared early morning car journeys to the aftermentioned Parkruns. Most of the discussions…
I spend a lot of time on the phone to clients, both employers and employees, and in recent weeks I’ve spent a decent amount of time discussing the latest developments on Love Island with certain HR Directors and Managers who, naturally, know who they are! YES, I know… It’s potentially unfashionable for me to admit…
Employment Law is a HUGE area. I mean, after all, I never struggle for a blog-related topic due to Employment Law covering everything from unpaid ‘discretionary’ bonuses, unfair dismissal, unreasonable denial of job vacancy due to disability, discrimination due to being a part-time worker, breach of contract due to pension-related ageism and, of course, discrimination…
The government has published the statutory instruments which implement two weeks’ paid bereavement leave for parents upon the death of a child under the age of 18. The Parental Bereavement (Pay and Leave) Bill and the Statutory Bereavement Pay(General) Regulations 2020 and will come into force as of the 6th April 2020. This new legal…
