EP286: Hannah Morrison, Legal Director of Brabners - What LEGAL process must I follow to launch my own business

Hannah Morrison, a Legal Director at Brabners, shares her expertise in recruitment law - focusing on advising businesses that hire temporary, contract and permanent staff. She emphasised the increasing use of employee ownership trusts to help recruitment companies unlock business value.

Hannah also highlighted the importance of having strong legal documentation - including terms of business, shareholder agreements and employment contracts, even when a business is just starting out.

Together, Lysha and Hannah discussed the value of establishing sound business processes to mitigate risk, recommending the use of trade bodies and resources like ChatGPT for drafting templates. They also underlined the need for restrictive covenants in employment contracts, noting that they must be reasonable and tailored to the role, especially after promotions. The conversation concluded with a discussion on balancing competition and business protection, advocating for fair employment practices and the potential of employee ownership models.
