Why Recruiters Trust Us with Their Docs

Specialist insight – We know what clients push back on, and what clauses get tested

Support from a solicitor – No template portals, no PDFs to figure out yourself. You get real legal expertise.

 

Why Recruitment Contracts Are Different

Standard employment templates don’t cut it in the recruitment world. Agencies work at the intersection of employment, commercial, and regulatory law — and need documentation that reflects:

  • Temp and contractor assignments (PAYE, umbrella, or PSC)

  • The Conduct of Employment Agencies and Businesses Regulations 2003

  • AWR, IR35, and the Onshore Intermediaries Legislation

  • Dual responsibilities to workers and client organisations

  • Internal staff management (consultants, resourcers, back office)

We work with recruiters every day to make sure their contracts, handbooks, and policies actually work — legally and commercially.
