We regularly conduct seminars to enable our clients to keep up to date with key legal developments. These sessions also provide our clients with a forum to discuss the potential impact of legislation on their organisations, to share and compare their experiences with their peers, and to network generally. We also offer tailored in-house training to suit your organisation's specific legal needs, affording you the flexibility to decide the topics to be covered and when and where the training is to take place.
We also publish a twice yearly employment law e-newsletter, which provides articles on forthcoming changes in employment law and other items of topical interest. If you are interested in receiving this, please contact Sam Hewitt (s.hewitt@maxwellwinward.com) to be added to the mailing list.
