FAQ: Employment Support & Self‑Representation
What issues can you help me with?
I provide expert guidance on unfair dismissal, redundancy, and discrimination claims. I also assist with document drafting, evidence gathering, and general tribunal preparation to help you navigate your case.
Are you a solicitor?
No, I am a UK law graduate and consultancy specialist, not a regulated solicitor. I provide practical litigation support and coaching for those representing themselves, which is a more affordable alternative to traditional legal firms.
How does self-representation support work?
I work behind the scenes to help you build your case, review your evidence, and prepare for hearings. You remain the primary contact for the tribunal, ensuring you have the tools to present your argument clearly and confidently.
What are your limitations?
I cannot perform 'reserved legal work' such as filing formal court papers on your behalf. Additionally, while I provide the best possible support, I cannot offer guarantees regarding the final outcome of any tribunal hearing.
How do your fees work?
I charge either a clear fixed fee per bundle or an agreed hourly rate for specific tasks. I do not offer 'no win, no fee' arrangements or success fees, ensuring my costs remain transparent from the start.
What if I have an urgent deadline?
If you are facing a tight tribunal deadline, please contact me immediately. While I cannot guarantee availability, I will respond quickly to tell you if I can provide the support needed to meet your requirements.
