Employment tribunal
Employment Tribunal proceedings can be complex. Our Employment Team can handle a wide range of Employment Tribunal Claims and provide tactical advice and assistance at all stages of the process, from drafting proceedings and witness statements to support at preliminary hearings.
We will provide you with realistic advice when assessing the chances of successfully defending a claim against your business and throughout your case.
