This work covers the law governing the employer–employee relationship in England, including contracts, pay, dismissals, discrimination, and workplace rights. A solicitor in England drafts and negotiates settlement agreements, advises on disciplinary and grievance procedures, represents clients in Employment Tribunal claims (for example involving unfair dismissal, constructive dismissal, discrimination or whistleblowing), and assists with pay disputes, TUPE transfers, and changes to terms and conditions.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
They draft statements of claim and defence, compile and respond to disclosures, advise on the perilous deadlines for tribunal claims, and prepare witnesses and evidence for hearings. They also negotiate settlements, review disciplinary procedures for compliance, and navigate statutory rights such as the Equality Act, National Minimum Wage, and working time protections.
