Get Started
Like it or not, every business has legal needs, even those whose operations are straightforward enough that they might imagine they're immune from potential litigation or other legal action. In particular, businesses must have written employment agreements for staff, and an employment handbook is also strongly recommended. This ensures that the terms and conditions of employment for any staff is clear from the start and helps to avoid potential future legal action from aggrieved individuals. Furthermore, a health and safety policy is also necessary to comply with regulations and help a business understand areas of potential risk that should be addressed.
These are all provided as part of Law Assistance along with many other contracts and agreements that are frequently required during the normal running of an SME business. Take a look at some of the categories below:
