The employment tribunal process

We will guide you through the process, ensuring that we carefully consider the commercial reality of the matter at every key stage which can include:

Assessing the merits of the claim and offer advice on the potential award of such claim to include the prospects of settlement.
Drafting a robust and comprehensive ET3 defence to the claim and where applicable, counter-claim forms.
Assisting in facilitating a settlement of the claim for a reasonable sum if it is in the best interests of the business. We can formalise a settlement by preparing and negotiating a COT3 agreement on your behalf.

Employment tribunal representation for employers

Complying with deadlines set by the tribunal is essential and can include exchanging documents relevant to the matter, preparing witness statements and trial bundles and organising a barrister to represent you at hearing if necessary.

Whilst guiding you through the tribunal process, we will gain an insight into your operations and we may be able to identify areas in which we could offer support and training to prevent similar cases from arising in the future.

We have successfully defended a number of employee claims including:

Unfair dismissal
Discrimination
Pay and bonus claims
Whistleblowing

Our experience of acting for employees and senior executives means that we have an insight into the tactics on both the claimant and respondent side of proceedings, allowing us to provide strategic advice to employers.
