Employment disputes can be time-consuming, expensive and stressful so you will want to make the most of the time you spend with your employment solicitor. It is therefore worth knowing the ways in which you can assist your employment solicitor and help resolve matters as smoothly as possible.
Before you can use an employment solicitor and commence legal action regarding an employment dispute you will need to raise an official grievance with your employer. You should have no trouble in finding out what your employer's policy on raising a grievance is and you should be able to take this step before consulting an
employment solicitor.
Nevertheless, employment solicitors emphasise that it is never too early to take legal advice. If you consult an employment solicitor early enough in the development of a workplace dispute, they may even be able to find a solution that involves you keeping your job. Even if you do not speak to an employment solicitor this early on, you should still be aware of the short time limits available for bringing a tribunal claim.
It is particularly helpful to the work of an employment solicitor if you can prepare well for meetings. At its most basic this could be setting out a chronology of events and making a note of any questions you have. Your employment solicitor will find it particularly useful if you can bring copies of related documents such as correspondence, company policy and your employment contract.
