Employment Law Expertise For Employers And Employees
Specialist employment law advice grounded in over 15 years of real-world case experience — helping employers prevent disputes and guiding employees through complex workplace issues under Irish employment law.
Employment law is rarely theoretical.
Employment law issues arise in real workplaces, involving real people, pressure, and consequences. They demand more than generic guidance or policy templates.
At Ormonde Solicitors, employment law is not one of many practice areas — it is the core of what we do.
Our experience spans the full spectrum of employment law matters, from advisory and preventative work for employers to representation and advocacy for employees. This dual perspective allows us to assess situations realistically, anticipate challenges, and guide clients with clarity and confidence.
Comprehensive employment law support.
We advise on a wide range of employment law matters, including:
- Employment contracts and terms
- Workplace investigations
- Disciplinary and grievance procedures
- Performance management
- Redundancies and restructuring
- Employment disputes and claims
- Regulatory and compliance issues
Our work is grounded in Irish employment legislation, WRC procedures, and evolving case law — always with an eye on practical outcomes.
Why perspective matters in employment law.
Employment disputes are rarely one-sided. Each party arrives with their own version of events, expectations, and objectives.
Having acted extensively for both employers and employees, we understand:
- How claims are framed and challenged
- Where procedures are most vulnerable
- How decisions are scrutinised after the fact
- What escalates disputes — and what prevents them
This perspective allows us to advise with realism, not theory.
Preventing disputes before they begin.
Many employment law issues stem from outdated documentation, unclear processes, or decisions made under pressure without legal context.
Our €575 Employer Audit is designed to identify these risks early and provide employers with clear, prioritised guidance on how to address them.
For many clients, this audit is the difference between a manageable internal issue and a formal legal dispute.
When employment issues escalate.
Some situations require immediate legal input — allegations of misconduct, urgent disciplinary decisions, regulatory deadlines, or rapidly escalating disputes.
In these moments, early advice can prevent long-term damage.
We provide rapid, confidential employment law support to help employers stabilise the situation and act decisively
A clear, professional process.
Our advice is direct, measured, and designed to support confident decision-making.
Trusted by employers across Ireland.
Clarity now prevents conflict later.
Employment law issues rarely resolve themselves. Early, informed advice puts you back in control — whether you are managing risk or responding to a developing situation.
