Employment Tribunal
Legal action to obtain damages in employment claims is a highly specialist area of the law so it is important that the solicitor dealing with your case has specific training and experience in this field. An employment law solicitor is able to give detailed advice on unfair dismissal, constructive dismissal and redundancy. Our employment solicitors operate nationally and represent clients at Employment Tribunals (ET) in all of the regional Employment Tribunal Offices and also represent clients at the Employment Appeal Tribunal (EAT) in the 5 main centres and in the higher courts where appropriate. There are very strict time limits applicable to making an application to an ET which in general terms must be carried out within three months of the termination of employment or of the date of the matter about which you have complained. The ET consists of a chairman who is a qualified judge assisted by two lay members who have experience dealing with employment problems from the point of view of employers or employees. The panel hears verbal evidence and considers documentary evidence before coming to a decision which in limited circumstances can be taken further to the EAT.
Awards of Damages
Our employment solicitors no win no fee terms are relevant in pursuing racial, sexual, age and disability discrimination, harassment and victimisation claims where damages are unlimited and very substantial sums are often awarded. Similar considerations apply to compensation claims for religious and sexual orientation discrimination. Dismissal on the grounds of health and safety also attracts an unlimited award of compensation. In all cases it may be possible for your solicitor to obtain a declaration or an order for re-instatement to the previous position held in addition to an award of unlimited damages.
