HR & Employment Adviser
Human Resources – it’s not that easy and it can be tricky. But it doesn’t have to be. Having the right attitude towards your staff is a good start. Having the right documentation is even better. Everybody needs to know where they stand. But grievances can fester, positions become entrenched and before you know it there’s a claim. And that is expensive. Expensive in time, distraction, professional fees and financial penalties.
Having your own Employment Adviser on tap means Managers and HR staff get the right documents, the right advice on how to use them and the right help when you need to know the best action to take and how to go about it.
We don’t just set out the options, we advise you on the best course of action. Step by step.
We do this stuff. So you can rest easy.

Contracts Adviser
Legal Contracts form an essential part of any business, especially Contracts with Customers. Every business needs Standard Terms and Conditions as part of a Quotation, then there’s the drawing up of individual Contracts. Then again, you may need advice on Contract terms sent to you by your Customer.
Getting it right means avoiding costly disputes down the line. We draft Contracts to protect your business. We make sure you understand what the words mean. And if the Contract is produced by your Customer we tell you what risks you are facing. And if things go wrong we help you resolve any contractual disputes.
“I think what my Client meant to say, Your Honour…” are words you never want to hear. We help you get it right in the first place.
We do this stuff. So you can rest easy.

Tell me about Paul Gregory
My name is Paul Gregory, owner of Legal and Business Affairs.
I began my career training and qualifying as a Solicitor in London then moved back North. I carried on and moved out of Private Practice to become Legal Counsel and Company Secretary to a multi subsidiary Holding Company. I carried on again and was appointed Managing Director of what my team and myself turned into a £60 million turnover company employing 1200 people across 20 sites. I carried on again and took the plunge to become self-employed.
I started this business to build a better link between commercial clients’ expectations and adviser’s service offerings. Since 2003 that’s what I’ve been doing. Using real life experience to provide top quality, affordable, legal and business advice ever since.
I see things from yourcommercial perspective by getting to know you and your business. By understanding you, your aims and your business ethos I can better protect your business in documents and advice.
