Defence Lawyer Representation At Employment Tribunals
An Employment Tribunal claim is brought about if an employee or former employee makes a claim against you or your business. The claim can be for any number of serious matters, including harassment, discrimination (race, sex, age, disability, age, sexual orientation or otherwise), unfair dismissal or constructive dismissal.
Although it is possible to represent yourself at Employment Tribunal, having the right tactical approach from the outset could prove fundamental to whether the judgement is made against you or your business and you are forced to pay out compensation. An employment law solicitor from Farleys will not only be able to advise you of the best approach, but can also represent you throughout the process, reliving much of the strain from you.
