Employment for Employers
Employment advice for employers, from the first hire to the difficult exit
One badly handled dismissal costs more than a year of good advice. We help you get the process right the first time, and we pick up the phone when it goes wrong.
How we work
Contracts and policies: Employment contracts, handbooks and restrictive covenants that are clear enough for your managers to follow without ringing us.
Dismissals, restructures and claims: A partner beside you from the first meeting to the settlement or hearing, with the cost of each stage agreed before it starts.
Retainer clients get a partner on call, unlimited short questions, and replies the same business day.
Our team
Six senior lawyers. The one you meet on day one stays on your matter to the end.
Testimonials
Northgate quoted our shareholder agreement in writing before they started. The final bill matched it.
Maya Ellis
Founder, software company
A supplier dispute had dragged on for a year. Northgate settled it in six weeks, without a court date.
Tom Vidal
Owner, logistics company
The same partner handled our lease, our fundraise and our acquisition. Northgate never passed us down the line.
Helen Marsh
CEO, manufacturing group
Our Series A closed on time because Northgate turned every document round the same day.
