Advice for both sides
Understand your position before deciding what to do next.

Common questions
Is there a deadline for bringing a Tribunal claim?
Employment claims are subject to strict time limits and the position depends on the type of claim. Contact us promptly so that we can assess the relevant deadline. Starting an internal grievance or appeal does not usually stop time running.
Can a dispute be resolved without a hearing?
Often, yes. Depending on the circumstances, a matter may be resolved through internal discussions, negotiation, ACAS Early Conciliation or a settlement agreement. We will advise on whether settlement is appropriate and what terms protect your position.
What should I send before the first discussion?
If available, send your contract, relevant policies, key emails or letters and a short chronology. If a deadline is close, contact us immediately rather than waiting until every document is available.
