Underperformance in the workplace covers struggles with meeting job standards or expectations, and the steps an employer uses to address it through capability and performance procedures. A solicitor practising in this area helps clients draft and apply a performance improvement plan, gather evidence of work issues, and navigate warnings, reviews, and potential dismissal processes. They advise on constructive steps, communicate with the employee, and prepare material for employment tribunals if escalation occurs, focusing on fair process and lawful outcomes.
The issue centres on a failure to meet the required standard and the consequences if the shortfall persists: dismissal or other adverse actions. A regulated solicitor provides guidance on lawful procedures, relevant evidence gathering, and preparation for possible disciplinary hearings, appeals, or tribunals, ensuring procedures comply with statutory rights and ACAS guidance.

Tagged solicitor Billy Smith
Billy helped me with signing a settlement agreement with my former employer. He made things really clear in a helpful and practical way and it was a great help to know I could rely on Billy to be helpful at any stage should further need or questions arise. He was always prompt with calls and never rushed things in any way. I would definitely use Billy again.

Tagged solicitor Kathryn Hirst
This is my first time needing a solicitor and I couldn't have asked for a better experience working with Kathryn Hirst and her team. My case was handled extremely well with consistent communication, transparency and commitment to get everything completed in the short amount of time we were working with, often dedicating time outside of core hours to action any outstanding responses. I would highly recommend this team if you are looking for solicitors with expert knowledge in Employment Law, you won't regret it.
