Navigator - Employment Law & HR Retainer
Providing employment law and HR advice when you need it
Employment, HR, health & safety, and data protection can all pose serious risks to your business if they are not handled correctly.
Our Navigator service gives you access to a team of fully qualified legal and specialist advisors.
We also know that no two businesses are the same. So rather than providing off-the-shelf packages, we work with you to design a service that meets your specific needs, including how you pay for it.
Some clients prefer to pay as they go, dipping in for advice as and when they need it. Others want the certainty of a fixed monthly retainer with unlimited access to our advisors. And for project-specific work, we'll always agree on a fixed fee upfront.
Why choose Navigator?
Whatever the situation, having the right expertise in your corner makes all the difference. Employment disputes, HR challenges, health & safety obligations, and data protection responsibilities can all have serious consequences if not handled correctly.
Our team of fully qualified legal and specialist advisors is known for its down-to-earth, friendly, honest approach, helping SMEs, owner-managed businesses, independent schools, charities and large corporations stay compliant, protected, and confident.
It's why clients say our advice can be "fully relied upon", and describe our team as "completely transparent on fees" and "so reliable and knowledgeable".
