We met our Newcastle-based client as part of the free consultation service we offer to everyone. They explained that they felt they were being defrauded by one of their staff who had been off for 5 months with an injury they’d claimed they sustained at work.

The staff member (let’s call him ‘Keith’) was in the process of taking legal action against their employer and claimed that they could no longer walk around without sticks for support. Read more about DO YOU HAVE CONCERNS ABOUT ONE OF YOUR EMPLOYEES?

THE BENEFITS OF PRE-REPOSSESSION REPORTS

Pre-repossession reports are an excellent and invaluable means for repossessions and evictions to go as smoothly as possible without any sudden or ‘surprise’ elements of intelligence rearing their heads, resulting in the process being derailed and thus requiring rescheduling. In some circles they are also known as ‘pre-eviction reports’ or ‘address intelligence reports [AIRs]’. Read more about THE BENEFITS OF PRE-REPOSSESSION REPORTS

A client contacted us after seeing one of our Facebook posts. She had started up her own fitness studio in Newcastle and offered bespoke exercise classes, nutrition plans and physiotherapy support to her clients.

Of late she had been hearing that one of her staff had been taking her session plans and using them whilst out working for themselves “on the QT” and, worst of all, that they’d been approaching clients at the end of sessions and actively tried to ‘poach them’ to leave our client and come work-out with them at a local gym instead.
