Alterations - don't cut corners! |
|
Time and time again, we see what should be quick and easy conveyancing transactions delayed due to the failure of the seller to obtain the necessary statutory consents when alterations were made to their property. Whilst it might seem like a good idea at the time, cutting corners where planning permission and building regulation approval are concerned is a decision you might live to regret.

The Value of your Property |
|
Valuing a property correctly is crucial to the successful sale of your home. Pitch the price too high and your property may compare unfavourably with others at the same price and you risk losing ideal buyers; too low and buyers may question what is wrong with it.

The Equality Act – ‘the three strikes rule’
The Equality Act came in to force (mainly) on 1st October 2010. It has the effect of extending the rules on third party harassment – i.e. anyone who is not an employee of the business – for example a client, customer, supplier or contractor, (in fact anyone who the employee comes into contact with during the course of his/her employment) could be the culprit. |

Employment Law Update March 2011 |
|
New rules for retirement coming shortly
At present, employers can still retire members of their staff whose 65th birthdays fall on or before 30th September 2011. The employee must however be given 6 to 12 months notice of this intention by the employer.
However, from April 2011 new rules will apply. If the intended retirement date is after 31st October 2011, employers will have to objectively justify their keeping of a contractual retirement age. If this cannot be justified, the dismissal will be unfair. There would also be no limit on the amount of award available for a tribunal to award the discriminated against employee. |

Thousands of people are finding themselves facing redundancy as a result of the wide-spread cost cutting measures that are currently sweeping the country. It is essential for anyone facing redundancy to obtain the correct advice before their employment is ended. Employers will often require their 'redundant employees' to enter into what is known as a 'Compromise Agreement'. This type of agreement prevents an employee from making any claim related to their employment and should not be entered into without professional advice. |
