    Compensation Limits covers the caps and ceilings that can apply to damages in certain employment claims, including unfair dismissal, redundancy and discrimination. A solicitor practising this area assesses whether any statutory or contractual limits apply, and helps clients plan how to pursue or settle a claim within those limits. They gather documentation, advise on eligibility, and prepare submissions for the Employment Tribunal or County Court, including any necessary expert evidence and settlement negotiations.

    Anthony Willis Your solicitor Anthony Willis Senior Associate - Employment Law 5.0 from 27 client reviews
    “Being the first time I've needed a solicitor I wasn't sure what to expect, and I couldn't be happier. Anthony was informative and helpful throughout our dealings, took the time to explain everything at a level I would understand. Reasonable in every regard and got the matter resolved quickly. Could not recommend a solicitor more. I hope I won't need a solicitor again but if I do, I know who I'll be calling.”
