They Give Real World Advice
I have used Eight Legal for several years and I am very happy to thoroughly recommend them. Eight Legal have delivered a very personal and personalised service for my business. This has included the delivery of contracts and employment handbooks, the education of key staff in employment law, same day telephone advice and great support when you really need it.
Much of what Eight Legal does, is to supply their clients with the knowledge and skills to anticipate and avoid problems with human resources and employment law. They also help to keep everyone compliant with the latest regulations and laws which change on an all too frequent basis. Much employment law is the same regardless where you work. However, Eight Legal have lots of experience with the veterinary business which really helps them to understand the unique positions we can find ourselves in. They know what is going on in a vet practice on a day to day level and can advise accordingly.
Despite the excellent advice and training, we have still found ourselves in unexpected and difficult situations. Specific issues have included advice surrounding pregnancy, mental health issues and staff members leaving before completing their notice period. We have found the support Eight Legal gives at these times to be really excellent and helped us to say the right things at the right time, to minimise problems and deal with things swiftly and efficiently. They give real world advice, which works well, helps to deliver the best possible outcome for all parties and allows me to get on with important things such as growing the business.
