Employment tribunal proceedings can be complex, time-consuming and stressful for both employers and employees.
We provide expert legal advice and representation throughout every stage of the tribunal process, from assessing the merits of a claim and exploring early settlement to preparing evidence and advocating on your behalf at hearings.
The procedures, burden of proof, calculation of compensation and costs systems in the Employment Tribunal (“ET”) are all different to those in the civil courts. We will guide you through these to allow you to make informed decisions relating to entering into, and conducting, litigation in the ET.
We assist both employers and employees with ET claims and can manage the process from the start of the process to the main hearing.
We view employment litigation as a last resort and will attempt to negotiate as best as we can for our clients. This is however not always possible, and litigation is sometimes the only option available.
