Time off for dependants covers short, unplanned absences from work to deal with unexpected events involving a dependant, such as a family member or someone you depend on. A solicitor who practices in this area helps you understand your rights, advises on claims if the employer refuses time off, and assists with drafting correspondence or negotiating arrangements for leave and any necessary documentation. They also guide you on what counts as a dependant and how long the absence can last.</description>
The right arises under the Employment Rights Act 1996 and usually allows an employee to take reasonable unpaid time off to deal with the immediate aftermath of events affecting a dependant. A solicitor can help confirm eligibility, discuss documentation, and address any disciplinary or disciplinary-appeal implications when time off is requested or refused.

I was very happy with the service that I received from Clarkes when dealing with such a sensitive matter such as redundancy. Everything was handled professionally & nothing was ever too much trouble, even when I had queries these were answered carefully & prompt. An excellent service & would definitely recommend Clarkes going forwards

Tagged solicitor Glenn Stanbury
I had an outstanding experience with Glen and the employment law team. From the very beginning, Glen was approachable, knowledgeable, and took the time to clearly explain every step of the process. His expertise and professionalism gave me great confidence, and his advice was always practical and easy to understand. What stood out most was Glen’s commitment and genuine care for my case. He was responsive, thorough, and ensured I felt supported throughout what could have been a very stressful time. Thanks to his guidance, the outcome was far better than I had hoped for. I would highly recommend Glen to anyone seeking employment law advice — an excellent solicitor who goes above and beyond for his clients.

I called Burrows and was put in touch with Janice, who met me in person to review the agreement and offer advice. I was very satisfied with the service overall, and everything went through without a problem. I would highly recommend Janice if you are in a similar position.
