Understanding the Employment Tribunal Process
The Employment Tribunal process in the UK is designed to resolve disputes between employees and employers. However, the procedures can be complex, and outcomes may have significant financial and reputational consequences. At The Law Firm Group, we ensure our clients are fully prepared and understand each step.
Key Stages of the Tribunal Process
Early Conciliation: Before a claim is submitted, most cases require an attempt at early conciliation through ACAS. Our specialist solicitors can negotiate on your behalf, aiming to resolve disputes efficiently and amicably.
Submitting the Claim: If early conciliation does not result in a settlement, a claim must be submitted to the Employment Tribunal within strict time limits. The Law Firm Group assists with drafting and filing claims or responses, ensuring all relevant details are included.
Case Management: After submission, the tribunal may set directions for both parties. This often involves exchanging documents, preparing witness statements, and setting hearing dates. Our legal team will guide you through these requirements, managing all documentation with precision and efficiency.
The Hearing: At the tribunal hearing, both parties present their case before an Employment Judge. Having an experienced employment solicitor from The Law Firm Group to represent you ensures your arguments are presented clearly and persuasively, with full protection of your rights and interests.
Outcome and Remedies: Following the hearing, the tribunal will issue its decision. If successful, remedies may include compensation, reinstatement, or recommendations for workplace changes. If you are an employer, our solicitors also advise on compliance and minimising risk for future claims.
