Ellis, now the company Chairman, we still operate according to the same principles of quality, value and a personalised service.

Our Employment Law and Health & Safety Fixed Fee Unlimited Support services are at the core of our offering. Unlike traditional firms of solicitors and consultants, there is no clock watching, no charging by the hour and no small print. So, you can call on us as often as you like without worrying about costs.

Yet as with traditional law firms and consultancies, we employ only highly qualified people. Nearly all of our Employment Law Advisers have qualified as solicitors and now specialise only in employment law. Likewise, our Health & Safety Consultants are all professionally qualified with experience across a wide range of sectors.

Clients benefit from one-to-one support from named EW colleagues – we do not operate like a call centre. We build lasting relationships with you by understanding your objectives and the way you like to operate.

We provide a proactive service: not only do we advise but we actually do the work for you. We don’t simply inspect and then tell you what needs to be done, we will actively help you to implement changes and improvements within your workplace.

Our service is underpinned by providing every client with a dedicated Client Manager to ensure you are getting maximum value and that you are never less than delighted with the service you receive from Ellis Whittam.

We operate to the highest ethical and professional standards, having achieved ISO 14001, OHSAS 18001 and Investors in People recognition. Our clients appreciate the swift efficiency with which we deal with their challenges and the sensitive way in which we handle difficult issues. This is why we are trusted by thousands of employers across the UK from local charities to global brands.
