Solicitors Unfair dismissal

Unfair dismissal happens when you’re dismissed from your job without a fair reason or the correct procedure. Under UK employment law, specifically the Employment Rights Act 1996, you have the right to challenge a dismissal if you believe it wasn’t justified. If successful, you may be reinstated in your role or awarded compensation.

How can a solicitor help me if I’ve been unfairly dismissed in the UK?

If you believe you’ve been unfairly dismissed, an employment solicitor can:

  • Assess your case: They’ll review your contract, the circumstances of your dismissal, and check whether you’ve met the usual two-year service requirement (with some exceptions, such as discrimination or whistleblowing).
  • Explain fair vs. unfair reasons: Employers can only dismiss employees for legitimate reasons—like misconduct or redundancy—and must follow a fair process. Your solicitor will examine if these criteria were met.
  • Guide you through ACAS Early Conciliation: You must contact ACAS before bringing a tribunal claim. A solicitor can advise you on this process and help negotiate a settlement if possible.
  • Represent you at the Employment Tribunal: Should conciliation fail, your solicitor will prepare your case, handle paperwork, and advocate on your behalf at the tribunal.

Ultimately, a solicitor’s expertise can improve your chances of securing compensation, a settlement agreement, or reinstatement.

How much does an unfair dismissal claim cost?

The cost of hiring a solicitor to handle your unfair dismissal claim can vary. Some solicitors charge hourly rates between £150 and £300, while others might offer fixed fees for specific stages of the process—such as drafting your tribunal application. If you have a strong claim, you may find a firm willing to discuss a no win, no fee arrangement.

Before you commit, ask about an initial consultation, which may be discounted or free. Also check whether you have legal expenses insurance—often included with home or vehicle policies—or if you’re a trade union member, as these can help cover some or all of your legal costs. Getting the right legal support early on can boost your chances of securing compensation or even reinstatement.
