Weightmans engineers a new relationship with MIRA

National law firm Weightmans LLP has struck a deal with whole vehicle engineering and test consultancy MIRA to provide it with external legal support on employment law matters.

MIRA has instructed Weightmans’ HR Rely team to be on hand to complement the business’ in-house Human Resources facility when faced with employment law issues.

Tim Lang, Partner and Head of the Employment team at Weightmans LLP said:

“We are delighted to be working with the team at MIRA to ensure their HR team is fully equipped with the most up to date and comprehensive support possible. Employment regulations constantly evolve and it can be a real challenge to keep abreast of the ever changing requirements a business like MIRA can face.

“As part of our HR Rely service we offer immediate advice and support to HR teams when they need professional reassurance.

“MIRA has a phenomenal reputation within the engineering and motoring industry and we are thrilled to provide legal support to the team.”

On the decision to team up with Weightmans, Lisa Rowles, Senior Manager Personnel and Security at MIRA said:

I am very pleased to have teamed up with HR Rely from Weightmans LLP, in a relationship which will add quality and value to our in-house, professionally qualified, HR team at MIRA. I am sure that the breadth of knowledge at Weightmans HR Rely, demonstrated by their specialist staff who have many years of experience in our industry, will only go to extend MIRA’s existing good record of handling HR matters.

MIRA is based near Nuneaton in Warwickshire and is a world-leader in advanced engineering, research and product testing.
