Unfair Dismissal

Dismissals can be a stressful time for an employee, particularly if you feel you were the victim of unfair dismissal or felt pressured to resign. If you have been or are in the process of being dismissed it is important to know that you do have rights. Those rights vary depending on your situation as employment law is complex. However, if you believe you have been unfairly dismissed you must seek expert legal advice. Depending upon the situation if you have been unfairly dismissed you may be entitled to claim compensation.

Unfair dismissal claims can arise from a range of issues such as:

• Raising Grievances
• Being harassed or bullied
• Discrimination
• Requests for time off to look after family
• Refusal to accept changes to employment conditions
• Whistle-blowing on unlawful practices

Unfair dismissal claims can only be pursued if you have been in your role for at least 2 years. If you are unsure whether you are eligible to make a claim or not please contact us to discuss your individual case.
