Service Contract

Our team of Employment Solicitors are here to help you with any legal advice concerning service contracts.

A service contract is an agreement between a company and its Directors or Senior Managers setting out terms of service. It differs from the normal conditions of employment in that it is often more detailed and includes more complex terms which are usually the subject of more arms length negotiation such as restrictive covenants.

The principal feature of a service contract is the length of the contract. As dismissal can give the employee a damages claim based on the value of their salary and benefits, or the period up to the time when the agreement could have been terminated.

Our specialist Employment Solicitors are highly experienced in drafting these often complex legal documents which could protect your company should a former influential employee wish for example to try and solicit staff and clients from you.
