Here at Just Employment Law, the annual retainer service is one of our spotlight offers which sees organisations and companies of all sizes, across all industries, and with all manner of specialisms connected to our team of expert Aberdeen employment lawyers for the duration of their retainer.
Renewed on an annual basis, this ongoing service is there whenever you need it – marrying your business with the kind of legal support and advice that could be called upon at any time. In this blog, we’re highlighting the benefits of this service as we seek to identify the businesses that have the most call for our annual retainer service – helping you to decide whether you need this or would be better seeking ad hoc advice when it is needed.
The benefits of having an employment lawyer on retainer
The primary benefit of having an employment lawyer on retainer is that, whenever you require legal advice or support, whether dealing with a disgruntled employee, a contentious contractual change or internal restructuring, advice and support is available. The simple fact is that legal advice is what businesses require to protect themselves considering these situations and scenarios, with our team on hand to not only offer our best advice but to represent you when necessary – protecting your business reputation by standing at a tribunal or a formal negotiation on your behalf.
Another benefit of having an employment law specialist on retainer lies in the access to other resources and tools, including our workshops and learning guides, and our webinars which keep you informed and up to date with changes across the employment law space both nationally and further afield.
Finally, when you have an employment law specialist on retainer, they become an extension of your inhouse team – getting to know you and your business, the team, and the way you operate and manage different things. Through this, they will better be able to represent you and will be able to advise on different processes which can streamline areas of the business like recruitment, onboarding, contract negotiation, and retention strategies.
Is annual retainer access something that you need?
If your business has employees, our annual retainer service is for you. Whether you are currently managing a large team with or without the support of an HR department, or you have a smaller number of employees managed directly by other senior management within the business, or if you are looking to take on staff over the next year, having a lawyer on speed dial means that you can check contracts and more with ease and efficiency, and ensure that all your processes are handled correctly.
What’s more, if an issue occurs within your workforce, you can deal with it quickly and without waiting for an employment lawyer to be free.
If this sounds like a service that you could benefit from, and if you want to arm your team and your business with a valuable asset that’s designed to protect the reputation and integrity of the company from harm in all corners, Just Employment Law is here to help.
