Employment Tribunal advice and representation
Employment Tribunal proceedings can arise from a wide range of workplace disputes, including unfair dismissal, constructive dismissal, discrimination, whistleblowing and unlawful deduction from wages.
Strict time limits apply. In most cases, a claim must be started within three months less one day of the act complained of, and ACAS Early Conciliation must be initiated before a Tribunal claim can proceed.
The Tribunal process can feel formal and complex. It involves detailed pleadings, evidence gathering, witness statements, and compliance with case management orders. Preparation and presentation are key to achieving the best possible outcome.
Whether you are bringing a claim or defending one, early legal advice can help you understand the strength of your position, manage risk and explore settlement options where appropriate.
