Employment lawyers in Nottingham
Few Nottingham employers have the luxury of in-house employment law specialists. So when employee issues arise, you might think your only option is to use a traditional employment law firm, which can prove to be very expensive given the hourly fees.
Here at WorkNest, we provide Nottingham’s wide range of businesses with top employment lawyers through our unlimited, fixed-fee service, enabling you to get high-quality, jargon-free employment law advice whenever you need it, without breaking the bank.

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.”
