About

e3 employment law LLP is a new breed of boutique law firm created in response to the modern commercial environment. The firm focuses exclusively on employment law and industrial relations issues.

The firm: e3 has a unique team of talented employment partners, who have moved out of large international law firms and who now provide exactly the same quality of advice and support, but through a more streamlined and efficient law firm, e3. This means that e3 delivers the highest levels of expertise but from within a more efficient model to produce greater value for clients. The firm’s efficiency means that e3 can and does provide a more dedicated and tailored service to clients. It does this by spending time with a client, understanding the business, exploring the legal and practical issues with the client, and listening to what the business wants to achieve. Each one of e3’s partners has been independently recognised as a leading expert in employment law for many years. Each one has decades of practical experience to draw upon.

Rather than a name which focuses on founder members, e3’s name deliberately focuses on the firm’s service delivery. The name e3 operates as a living reminder to every individual within the firm and as a continuous commitment to every client that e3 will deliver legal support that is effective, efficient and economic (the eponymous three e’s) as follows:

Effective: e3’s lawyers apply their leading expertise and use all of their vast practical experience to achieve one thing and one thing only: their clients’ goals.

Efficient: real-life experience means that e3 lawyers know the short cuts, the points that matter and the issues that will make a difference, so that clients don’t waste valuable time and money on unnecessary issues.

Economic: e3 is committed to providing clear value for money in everything it does and provides a refreshing range of flexible cost-management structures.

Businesses say that when they get legal support that is effective in obtaining their goals, and it does so efficiently and the solutions make obvious economic sense, then that legal support delivers outstanding commercial value. The core purpose of e3, as prominently reflected in its name, is to deliver the three e’s and so provide outstanding commercial value.
