Employment Law for Employees

Our employment lawyers provide a responsive, cost effective service for senior executives in the context of both entry to and exit from employment.


What our employment lawyers do


In addition to the engagement and termination arrangements, our employment lawyers can provide (or where necessary source) advice in relation to:

  • Equity and share options
  • Bonus and other benefit arrangements
  • Tax
  • Pensions
  • Business immigration

"I have always found that DMH Stallard have been very approachable and always offer practical and useful solutions to any issues I have."

How our employment lawyers work


Our employment lawyers work hard to identify your objectives and to put them into practical effect. The experience that we have from our large employer base in a very wide range of sectors means we can readily identify your employer’s likely response to any particular issue, which means we can provide focussed, cost effective advice.

"This employment team is constituted of highly knowledgeable skilled dynamic lawyers well equipped to give excellent, comprehensive and clear advice. They are simply one of the best teams in a strong field."

  • Represented a senior executive in defending a High Court pre-action disclosure application regarding alleged breaches of post termination restrictive covenants.
  • Represented a senior employee with Parkinson's Disease and achieving an Employment Tribunal award of five years future loss of earnings following a finding of unlawful discrimination.
