Employment Tribunal Litigation Solicitors

From the outset, and as your case develops, Simon will assess the merits of your defence and discuss with you your options and his recommended tactics. He will advise you about any litigation risks and your estimated legal costs so that an agreed case plan can be followed. This approach allows you to make informed decisions at each stage about how you want to react to the claim being made against your business or organisation.

Regardless of the merits of any case, management time is lost and legal costs incurred if a case proceeds to a full tribunal hearing. Often there is uncertainty about what the outcome will be notwithstanding how strong your defence is.

If your preferred approach is to reach negotiated terms of settlement we can help. We are skillful and experienced negotiators who can seek to settle a case on best possible terms for your organisation. You may decide to seek a negotiated outcome if the merits of your defence are weak or because you wish to avoid the time, costs and uncertainty associated with dealing with a tribunal case that proceeds to a full hearing.

If you elect to fight an employment tribunal claim you need to make sure the preparation of your defence is first-class. A poorly or late prepared case can easily harm your prospects of defending successfully the claim against you. This is why our tribunal cases are carefully prepared and organised by us in good time before any hearing, to avoid last minute panics and unexpected problems.

Our approach ensures your defence is robustly and persuasively argued and presented to ensure you achieve the best possible outcome, as quickly as possible to save the loss of management time and to minimise your legal costs.

You can be assured that if your case proceeds to a tribunal hearing it will be argued by a specialist and experienced advocate so that nothing will be left to chance or over looked.

At Quantrills we are practised and regular advocates in the employment tribunals. However, we regularly use barristers from leading employment law chambers to represent our clients, especially for full merit hearings involving the complex or high value cases we deal with.

Thankfully very few of our cases end up in the Employment Appeal Tribunal but we do handle all aspects of appeals including representation.
