  1. Hello Eveyone, I've been reading through a lot of posts for a while now but can't find the answer I'm looking for. Basically, I have a very small business with 2 employees. A previous member of staff no longer works for me but at the time of her employment she was a good friend of mine. Because of this friendship I never actually issued her with a written contract of employment, (I know, I know) although basic terms like hours, pay & what work would need doing were discussed verbally. After her employment ended, I discovered that a considerable amount of specific work I paid her to do was not done. I was advised to write to her asking for my money to be reimbursed, failing that issue a small claims, which I haven't done as yet. She is now stretching the truth about other non-relevent matters but I was just wondering what the worst case scenario is for me for not having issued her with her written contract. Would a verbal contract be enough? She was in my employ for 16 weeks (well, she should have been, had she have done the work!). Any advise much appreciated
