Contract Disputes

Before you begin work at any employer, in any sector, you should be given an employment contract that sets out your obligations and rights, and the obligations and rights of your employer. We can assist you with any contractual disputes and guide you through the process. 

This agreement is designed to give protection to both parties. If your employer breaches your contract, our experienced contract dispute solicitors may be able to help you to make a claim for unfair treatment and compensation.

Ramsdens Solicitors boasts a dedicated employment law team with the knowledge and specialist experience to deal with contract disputes of any kind. Our contract dispute solicitors have worked with employees in all sectors and at companies of a variety of sizes, so don’t hesitate to get in touch – we are here to help you.

What is a contract dispute?

A contract dispute is a disagreement over the terms of an employment agreement, and they are usually pursued by an employee who feels that a key aspect of their employment terms has been breached.

A dispute could arise over:

  • Maternity and paternity pay
  • Holiday entitlement
  • Annual leave
  • Wages or pensions
  • Health and safety
  • Other working conditions

Specific issues that can lead to disputes include:

  • Being denied a bonus you are entitled to
  • Being refused maternity/paternity leave
  • Changes to working hours without consultation
