welcome to Emsleys
Protecting your business is crucial. Problems involving employees,
customers and suppliers take you away from the day job and if they
are not addressed at an early stage, they can result in real problems
that are not only demanding of your time and money but can severely
affect your bottom line. For smaller firms, particularly in tough
economic times, this can result in serious damage to your business.
Whether you are looking to prevent costly and time-consuming issues occurring, or if a dispute has already arisen, you need a legal advisor with the expertise and experience to help you address the situation. Many legal problems can be prevented by having the basics in place. To help avoid issues arising in the future, we offer all clients a free ‘business health check’.
We have extensive experience in all aspects of business and commercial property law and have advised and given practical support to local and regional businesses for many years. We are also nationally recognised as experts in property and housing litigation, acting for landlords in courts throughout the country. Our dedicated teams focus on the individual needs of your business, taking care to understand the outcome you want to achieve, allowing you to concentrate on your priority of running your business.
We believe we do things differently and so do our clients. We give our clients what they want – friendly, approachable lawyers who offer the best, highest quality advice, who keep it simple and speak the same language. Our clients trust us - we ask every one of them and over 98%* would recommend us.
Get in touch with us today and let us help you protect your business.

employment law
We know how important your employees are to the success of your
business. We also know that when you are dealing with people and
personalities things can sometimes go wrong. With the employment
claims process seeming to favour the employee, you must protect your
business.
We can help you at all stages, from contracts, policies and procedures, to dealing with day-to-day problems, all the way through to bringing employment contracts to an end. If you are threatened with an expensive Employment Tribunal claim we can provide advice to help you manage what can be a costly distraction, leaving you to focus on running your business.
• Contracts, policies & procedures

dispute resolution &
debt recovery
As a business, particularly in the current economic climate, you are
likely at some point to encounter a problem with a supplier or
customer. Whether it is related to poor quality goods, an
unsatisfactory service, or money is owed but has not been paid, you
need the situation rectified as soon as possible and in a commercially
sensible way to ensure the smooth running of your business and your
cash flow.
We deal with clients in dispute every day. We give commercially-focused, practical advice, always with the objective of reaching a solution that meets our clients’ needs. If you are anxious to preserve a valuable business relationship we will do our very best to achieve this. We offer a full debt recovery service from start to finish, assessing your situation and offering the best advice as to whether or not your case is worth pursuing. We do not want you to throw good money after bad so a realistic appraisal of your case at an early stage is important.
