Employment Litigation Solicitors

  • Unfair or wrongful dismissal claims: When an employer dismisses an employee without a fair reason or proper procedure.
  • Discrimination and harassment cases: Involving race, religion, sex, disability, or other protected characteristics under the Equality Act 2010.
  • Breach of contract disputes: Such as failing to honour notice periods or bonus agreements.
  • Redundancy challenges: Where the process is allegedly unfair or lacks proper consultation.
  • Wage or pay disputes: Covering unpaid wages, holiday pay, or illegal deductions.

In many instances, employees must engage in ACAS Early Conciliation before proceeding to an employment tribunal.

A solicitor will first review your circumstances to confirm if you have a solid legal basis for a claim or defence. They can then:

  • Prepare documents such as the ET1 claim form and witness statements.
  • Provide representation at tribunal hearings or in settlement negotiations.
  • Offer strategic advice on whether to settle or proceed to a full hearing.

Costs can vary based on complexity, location, and the solicitor’s experience. Hourly rates typically range from £150 to £300, although fixed fees might be available for specific tasks (for example, drafting documents or representation at a preliminary hearing). If your claim has strong prospects, a no win, no fee arrangement may be an option. Always check whether you have legal expenses insurance (often included with home or vehicle policies) to cover part or all of your legal fees.

Employment litigation involves resolving workplace disputes through formal legal processes, often in an employment tribunal or, in some cases, the civil courts. Common issues include unfair dismissal, discrimination, contract breaches, and wage disputes. Whether you’re an employer or an employee, taking a claim to litigation can be complex—so professional legal guidance often proves invaluable.
