Employment lawyers in Lincoln
Business owner in Lincoln? It’s likely that, from time to time, you’ll have faced an employment law situation you’re not familiar with and unsure how to solve. When dealing with issues involving your workforce, it’s important to have someone knowledgeable to turn to for advice, but many local businesses don’t have the luxury of in-house HR and legal expertise.
With WorkNest, you have a team of expert employment lawyers waiting in the wings to support you. And unlike traditional employment lawyers who often charge expensive hourly rates, we’ll assign your Lincoln-based business its own small team of highly-skilled employment lawyers as part of our unbeatable fixed-fee service. That way, you can access as much professional guidance as you need without breaking the bank.

Who we are | Employment lawyers in Lincoln
Legal support from local experts
Our employment lawyers in Lincoln are here to help your business overcome any workforce obstacle, from simple sickness and absence queries to more complex cases such as complicated grievances and redundancy exercises. WorkNest’s skilled legal and HR specialists can provide you with the information and solutions you need to approach matters confidently and achieve your preferred outcome efficiently and compliantly.
Lincoln is a historic city, home to a range of businesses and individuals. Because of this, WorkNest assigns named, local employment lawyers who will get to know your organisation, your history and how you operate. With 65+ individually regulated solicitors and sector specialist teams, you can be confident that those advising you have the legal expertise, industry knowledge and practical experience to guide you through any employment challenge.
Our employment lawyers always aim to fully integrate into your existing operations, working seamlessly alongside you and your internal teams. When we work with small businesses, our lawyers directly advise and support managers and directors to make employee relations matters more manageable. For larger organisations, our Lincoln-based employment lawyers work in tandem with in-house HR/people teams, utilising their legal expertise to take the pressure off and help your organisation tackle even the trickiest cases. Whether your business is large or small, our teams aim to get to know the ins and outs of your business and team so that they can provide truly bespoke support. Crucially, unlike some fixed-fee providers, we don’t believe in a generic, call-centre approach; instead, our personalised service allows us to understand your specific requirements, ensuring we’re in the best position to help you expertly navigate any situation and secure the best possible outcome each time.

We moved our legal support to WorkNest (formerly Law at Work) having previously used a time and line law firm. It was important, though, that an all-inclusive fee structure did not come at the expense of quality. Thankfully we’ve been delighted with the service we’ve received from WorkNest.”
