Contracts & Handbooks
Paperwork that protects you — and people actually read.
Template contracts copied from the internet contradict your handbook, miss day-one requirements, and fall apart the first time you rely on them. Your paperwork should match how your business actually runs.
What's included
- Employment contracts drafted or reviewed, day-one compliant
- Staff handbooks in plain English your team will actually read
- Policies matched to your real practice — not aspirational fiction
- Probation, notice, restrictive covenant and flexibility clauses done properly
- Annual update check-ins so documents never go stale
Where retainer firms fall short
- One-size templates that contradict each other
- Legalese nobody reads until it's too late
- Updates you pay for but never receive
- Documents that crumble under scrutiny
How it runs
The process, in four moves
01
We read what you have
A blunt audit of your current contracts and handbook — what protects you and what doesn't.
02
We learn how you work
Hours, remote patterns, overtime reality — the documents must match the practice.
03
We draft in plain English
Compliant, tailored, readable. No filler clauses copied from a law firm's attic.
04
We roll it out with you
Including the consultation and communication side, where changes need it.
If this matter turns legal — a claim, a contentious dismissal, a discrimination allegation — we bring in Bonsai Law, an SRA-regulated law firm, with your consent and full context handed over. You never pay lawyer rates for HR work, or HR rates for legal work.
