Tribunal Solicitors

Do I need an Employment Tribunal Solicitor?

There is no rule that says you must have a tribunal solicitor when making a claim but it is certainly worth hiring one to support you when making an application. There are several reasons for doing this.
  • Employment law is increasingly complicated and, in addition, there are very particular processes that need to be followed. This is something that your employment tribunal solicitor will be able to support you with. They’ll also be able to make sure your case adheres to the necessary time limits so everything runs as smoothly as possible
  • A solicitor who specializes in employment law claims will give your case the best chance of succeeding – especially if you are arguing your case against a well-resourced employer who attends your tribunal hearing with his own specialist lawyer
  • Your employment tribunal compensation solicitor will be able to look at your case in more detail and determine the best way to go about it, as well as assisting you in collating all the necessary information, contacting witnesses to support the case and dealing with any other matters relating to the claim. They’ll also be able to speak to your employer on your behalf, negotiate on your behalf without emotion in an attempt to settle your claim without an unnecessary hearing and represent you in any arbitration or mediation process
  • Employment tribunal claims often relate to very sensitive issues, such as discrimination, which you may feel uncomfortable dealing with. A skilled employment tribunal solicitor will be able to act sensitively on your behalf and make your case to the employment tribunal for you
