How can Irwin Mitchell support my business during a professional negligence claim?
If you’re facing a claim, it’s important to seek legal advice as early as possible. Early support can help limit potential damage and put you in the strongest position from the outset.
Investigations can be disruptive, taking up valuable time and resources. You may need to manage interviews, gather documentation, and respond to formal requests – all while trying to keep your business running smoothly.
The pressure of an investigation can also be stressful and distracting. Our experienced employment solicitors can guide you through the process, helping you resolve issues efficiently and with minimal disruption to your day-to-day operations.
There’s also the risk of reputational damage within your industry. By involving us early, we can work to keep proceedings as short and discreet as possible.
