After 30 years of trading as a Mini-Supermarket, I inherited the business from my father, we faced a breach of trading standards regulations. I did not realise how serious these breaches were as I kept putting the papers sent from the Council to one side until almost 2 days to the Court date, I went in a panic, had no clue where to start.
As soon as I contacted Maureen at Reen Anderson Solicitors, I knew I was in good hands, she guided me throughout the process. I am so grateful for her help and support.
Thank you.
Health and Safety Lawyers
Health and Safety is a complex topic and is an issue that affects all businesses from sole traders to multi-national companies. There are numerous categories within health and safety itself, including general health and safety duties, construction management, corporate manslaughter and homicide, gross negligence, working at height, gas safety, fire safety, and many other areas.
If a breach of health and safety laws occur there can be large fines imposed for what you may perceive as a minor offence. It is therefore vital for all businesses to contact well-experienced and knowledgeable health and safety solicitors if a case against their company ever arose.
I would like to thank Reen Anderson Solicitors for their representation of myself and my company in a Health and Safety Prosecution matter against me and my company.
As a result of their representation and advice, we received a much lower fine than we were expecting in Court. We also received very good advice and some recommendations from them to make sure we do not make the same mistake again, as a small business we cannot afford to waste money paying for court cases if we can at all avoid it. I would definitely recommend them; they really do care about you and your business.
