Defending employment claims
We run litigation according to your needs: we excel at thinking strategically and working closely with you to achieve the best possible outcomes. In Ireland contentious employee issues are litigated at Ireland’s employment tribunal fora, namely the Workplace Relations Commission and the Labour Court. These include, among others, unfair dismissal, discrimination and whistleblowing claims.
Certain high stakes disputes such as injunction applications challenging disciplinary proceedings and challenges to bonus/incentive awards are brought to the Superior Courts.
Our expert team vigorously represents employers’ interests in claims of all kinds to safeguard their business and their objectives, always adapting our advice on the basis of risk appetite and commercial considerations.
You need the best team: one that is on top of the law but also the tactics of litigation. Understanding both your opponent’s mindset and your attitude to risk is fundamental in our approach to litigation.
