What kind of workplace disputes can be heard at an employment tribunal?

An employment tribunal typically deals with:

Unfair and wrongful dismissal cases, where employees believe they’ve been dismissed without proper cause or correct procedure.
Discrimination and harassment claims under the Equality Act 2010, including issues related to age, race, religion, sex, or disability.
Wage or pay disputes, such as unpaid wages, holiday pay, or illegal deductions.
Redundancy and consultation disputes, focusing on whether the process was fair and correct.
Breach of contract claims, for instance if an employer fails to honour contractual terms like notice periods.

Before lodging a tribunal claim, most people must notify ACAS for Early Conciliation to see if the dispute can be settled. If no agreement is reached, you can submit a formal claim to the tribunal.

How can a solicitor help with an employment tribunal claim, and what will it cost?

A solicitor can:

Assess your case to determine whether it’s likely to succeed.
Prepare your documentation, including the ET1 form and any witness statements.
Represent you at tribunal hearings, presenting arguments and cross-examining witnesses.

Costs vary based on the complexity of your case and the solicitor’s experience. Many charge £150 to £300 per hour, though some offer fixed fees for specific stages—like drafting documents or attending a preliminary hearing. In certain cases, a no win, no fee arrangement might be available if your claim has strong prospects. You can also check whether you have legal expenses insurance—often included in home or vehicle policies—to help cover fees.
