Employment Law

The team at John O’Leary Solicitors has extensive experience advising both employers and employees on a wide range of employment law matters. We understand that workplace issues can be complex and sensitive, often carrying significant legal, financial, and personal implications.

Our employment law practice is focused on providing clear, practical advice that reflects current legislation while taking account of the commercial and human realities of the workplace. We work closely with our clients to understand their objectives and to achieve effective, proportionate solutions.

We advise employers on all aspects of the employment relationship, including contracts of employment, policies and procedures, disciplinary processes, redundancies, and workplace investigations. Our firm regularly assists businesses in ensuring compliance with employment legislation and in managing risk in a proactive and structured manner.

For employees, we provide guidance on matters such as unfair dismissal, wrongful dismissal, redundancy, discrimination, bullying and harassment, and breaches of employment rights. We support clients throughout the process, from early advice and negotiation through to representation before the Workplace Relations Commission and the Labour Court where necessary.

John O’Leary Solicitors also has experience in handling employment-related disputes, including contractual claims and disputes arising from termination of employment. Where possible, we seek to resolve matters efficiently through negotiation or mediation, while remaining fully prepared to pursue or defend proceedings when required.

Our aim is to provide clear, accessible, and effective employment law advice, delivered with professionalism and discretion. We place strong emphasis on communication, practical outcomes, and achieving the best possible result for our clients.
