Our Services

Our partners Laurence Dunn and Laura Jamieson and their team offer a bespoke service which provides tailor-made solutions to workplace issues. 

​

We are committed to providing a consistently high-quality and personal service to all of our clients. 

​

We support a wide selection of clients including multi-nationals, SMEs, charities and local authorities. DC Employment Solicitors pride ourselves on getting to know how organisations operate and in cultivating strong relationships, so as to enable us to provide a pragmatic, realistic and cost-effective approach to legal issues. We never say 'you can't do that', instead, we discuss the options available to clients, together with the associated risk, so that they can make informed decisions guided by our expertise. 

​

​Given the fast-moving and often urgent nature of employment law matters, we recognise that a quick response is often essential.  Every member of our team understands the importance of this, and we pride ourselves on our quick response and fast turnaround times.
