Employment Tribunals

Receipt of a claim to the employment tribunal represents a considerable risk for any organisation. In addition to the financial implications of any litigation, there is the added threat of reputational damage and a substantial drain on your resources.

Expert advice and preparation are fundamental when it comes to making sure your business is in the best possible position to defend a claim in court.
