Unfair dismissal in 2027 - A must read for employees and employers!

Have you ever left work worried that you might lose your job, and wondered whether the law would actually protect you if the worst happened?

The rules around unfair dismissal are changing in 2027, and many employees have no idea what that means for them. If you do not know your rights, you could accept a decision that is not fair, miss an important deadline, or walk away with far less than you are owed. That uncertainty is stressful enough without the fear of getting it wrong at the very moment you need clarity most.

The good news is that understanding your position does not have to be complicated. Our complete guide explains what unfair dismissal really means in 2027, how the changes could affect you, and the practical steps you can take to protect yourself.

It is written in plain language, with no confusing jargon, so you can feel confident about where you stand. Rated Excellent on ReviewSolicitors, we are proud to support people right across Gloucestershire.

Know your rights before you need them. Read the full guide here from our expert Kamrul Zaman. https://tayntons.pulse.ly/2vv2bu2ssg

Are you unmarried and buying a property together?

Did you know that living together, even for many years, does not give you the same legal protection as a married couple? The idea of a "common law marriage" is a myth, and it catches many people out.

Now imagine a relationship comes to an end. Suddenly, the home you both paid for is at the centre of a painful dispute. Who owns what? Who gets to stay? Without clear legal rights in place, these questions can drag on for months, adding stress and worry at an already difficult time, especially when there is no clear record of who contributed what.

This is where a TOLATA claim can help. TOLATA (the Trusts of Land and Appointment of Trustees Act) allows unmarried couples to sort out property disputes fairly and clearly. Our family law team offers calm, practical advice to protect your share of the home and help you move forward with confidence.

London to Paris on Tandems!

Great causes need people willing to go the extra mile, and sometimes that means a very long ride.

Meningitis Now do incredible work, but they cannot keep going without our support. Every worthwhile challenge needs backers, and reaching a fundraising goal takes real commitment from all of us. Without that help, brilliant causes can fall short of the difference they set out to make.

We are cycling all the way from London to Paris, and we are doing it on tandems. It takes teamwork, grit and a good sense of humour, and we are ready for every mile of it.

We are proud to have the support of the following businesses, who will be joining us on this journey:

Quayside Wealth Management
Griffiths March Advisory Group
Leeways Packaging
TruGreen Gloucestershire
First Aid Trauma Training
Ryan Hogarty Coaching
Herma UK
Semour Baps - (Support Driver)

Your support means the world. Whether you can give a little or a lot, every single donation helps us reach our goal and back a cause that matters.

Losing someone you love is hard enough. Sorting out their wills and probate on top of that grief can feel like a weight you were never meant to carry alone.

When you are already struggling, the wrong support only adds to the stress. Slow replies, confusing paperwork and cold, formal advice can leave you feeling more lost at the very moment you need clarity most.

That is why we do things differently at Tayntons. Our Wills and Probate team, led by Adam, take the time to explain each step in plain language, so everything feels clear and manageable. Here is what Belinda had to say about working with Adam.

"Very happy with all aspects. Very friendly and helpful. Would certainly recommend"

Buying or selling a home should be one of life's most exciting moments, not a source of sleepless nights.

Too often though, slow updates and confusing paperwork turn that excitement into stress. When you are left in the dark, wondering whether your move will go through on time, even the happiest step can start to feel like a nightmare.

That is where we come in. Our conveyancing team keeps things moving and keeps you fully informed at every stage, explaining each step in plain language so you always know where you stand. Here is what one of our recent clients had to say.

"Professional, efficient and responsive. Having been impressed with Tayntons’ handling of an elderly relative’s legal issues we thought we’d go with them for our house move. So glad we did. When the chain ran into problems, Tayntons worked quickly to establish facts and advise us on what to do. Communication was mainly via email and messages were clear and responses quick. We were so grateful for the work of all the team members with whom we dealt. They helped tremendously during a very stressful time. Highly recommended."

If you are a commercial landlord or business tenant approaching the end of a lease, understanding Section 25 Notices is essential.

A Section 25 Notice is served by a landlord to formally bring a protected commercial tenancy to an end, whether to propose a new lease or to oppose renewal. The deadlines and legal formalities involved are strict, and errors can have serious consequences for both parties.

Our latest article from Kamrul Zaman, Head of Litigation explains the purpose of a Section 25 Notice, when it applies, and the key steps involved in the renewal process under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954.
