Common law contractual claim
An employer who dismisses an employee without notice, for example, will be held to be in breach of contract.
Wrongful Dismissal
Wrongful dismissal is the common law contractual claim for breach of contract. An employer who dismisses an employee without notice, for example, will be held to be in breach of contract unless it can be found that the employee has committed gross misconduct.
We are happy to provide advice in relation to the avoidance of wrongful dismissal claims as well as advice in respect of breaches that have already occurred and the likely consequences.
