Are you facing redundancy or being unfairly dismissed?
Your best interests are our prime concern and here at Ward Gethin Solicitors we have a specialist team of employment Solicitors who can provide you with advice on all employment law issues affecting employees, and those who have been dismissed or those who believe that they have been dismissed by their employer as a result of their employer's actions.
We can provide you with employment advice and we do offer an initial consultation either by telephone or in person free of charge. It does not matter if your employment was part time or full time. Here at Ward Gethin Solicitors we can provide advice on the following employment claims:
- Unfair Dismissal claims
- Constructive Dismissal claims where your employer has breached your contract of employment and you believe that you had no alternative than to leave employment
- Discrimination
- Breach of Contract
- Redundancy
- Employment related dismissal and pregnancy related dismissal
If you believe that you have been treated unfairly by your employer, then please contact either Anissa Hallworth or Kim Faivelowitz who will be able to assess your claim without charge to you.
If our employment Solicitors believe that you do have sufficient grounds for a claim in the Employment Tribunal, then we may be able to represent you under a no win no fee agreement on the basis that if you are successful in your claim, then our fees will be paid from your compensation. If however you are unsuccessful in your claim, then there will only be a charge to you of the expenses which we have incurred which can include travel expenses and the costs of an expert if necessary. There will be no other charge to you.
If we are unable to represent you on this funding arrangement, then we will give you a quotation as to the costs of acting on your behalf privately and if necessary, you can pay us on a monthly basis in order to allow you to budget for your legal costs.
