    As an employee, you will have legal rights governing your employment which may provide you with legal protection when things go wrong.

    Extremely happy with the support and guidance provided by Sarah Cook during a redundancy process. Advice was clear, concise and very much based on past experience - highly recommend seeking advice from Porter Dodson if you're unfortunate enough to need to negotiate severance from your employer.
