Whether you’re married, in a civil partnership or living together, choosing to separate is an incredibly difficult and emotional decision. At a time when you’re already distressed, separating your assets, debts and responsibilities can be extremely hard to manage without input from an experienced separation solicitor.
There are many day-to-day legal issues in the running of a business. Getting the right contracts and agreements in place is key to your company’s long-term success. Our commercial contract solicitors provide solutions through a clear and direct business-to-business approach.
A restrictive covenant is a clause in a contract that protects your business if a member of staff leaves. They aim to prevent an employee from joining a competitor for a limited period, from soliciting or working with customers or from soliciting or employing your staff. Without proper covenants in place, particularly for executive roles, your business is at risk.
Navigating this complex area of law is challenging. In addition to the relevant legislation, the regime is underpinned by a significant body of case law, guidance and practice. Our team can assist contracting authorities (public sector and utilities) with everything from the design and execution of large-scale tender processes, direct awards, exemptions, and contract management, as well as bigger picture issues such as the preparation of organisational procurement policies and training of evaluators.
Whilst a time of uncertainty and struggle for many, the past 12 months have created opportunities as well as challenges. Clarke Willmott saw our clients respond and adapt to the changes brought about by a global pandemic.
