NO WIN NO FEE agreements are generally available in employment law claims and we are able to deal with claims in any part of England or Wales.

We offer considerable experience in employment law.  We deal with both employer and employee matters from everyday workplace advise, drafting documents, through to full representation and advocacy at employment tribunals.

We have a good record of success in employment litigation for employees and were very pleased when one of our principal, Richard Brearley, acted in a case and obtained an assessment of damages from an employment tribunal of over £240,000 for one of our clients in a disability discrimination case dealing with chronic fatigue syndrome.

Richard Brearley also more recently conducted a case including representing the client at a three day hearing at the employment tribunal at which he secured an award of over £74000 against a national estate agency chain for the unfair dismissal of one of its branch managers.

Most employment tribunal claims are settled and we do all we can to assess and advise pragmatically and use our experience to achieve realistic settlements for our clients, whether employee or employer.

We also have a good record for employer's cases and have successfully defended numerous claims against our employer clients, from small high street businesses to large television studios.  We prefer to focus our clients on prevention and work closely with them and their human resources departments to achieve this.

We are also experienced in dealing with compromise agreements for employees or employers.

We also offer NO WIN NO FEE arrangements in many employment law claims by employees and we would be happy to give you an initial assessment of your case.

We are also able to offer training to employers and their managers in most aspects of an employer's obligations, both in respect of understanding the rights of employees and in dealing properly with colleagues in the workplace on a day to day basis.  We have dealt with many claims where the circumstances upon which the claim is based have arisen directly as a result of the poor understanding by managers of their obligations, despite some training, and where the employers are liable for those actions. Often it is the failure to keep training and documentation up to date or to rely on employees reading, understanding, and implementing documentation that leads to claims.  We can help to ensure this does not happen and please contact us if you wish to discuss your training requirements.
