Practical Employment Law Advice

 
Welcome to my website. Please feel free to browse and contact me anytime for employment law advice. There is no charge for an initial chat.

My biography gives a full description of my experience. I decided, in the spring of 2004, to leave the City after 14 years leading up the employment practice of a large firm. I have been a part time Employment Judge since 2000 and now also work as an employment tribunal consultant though recognised by the legal 500 as one of the UK's foremost employed law practitioners. I charge only £175 per hour which is less than a quarter of the fees charged by most employment partners in London law firms. I have full solicitors insurance, testimonials and also consider fixed and contingent fees.

Costs
It is always difficult to for a Respondent to get costs back in the Employment Tribunal because these are only awarded on an exceptional basis e.g. due to unreasonable conduct . However a recent decision in the EAT confirms that it is harder for a Respondent to get an order for costs without warning the Claimant in advance and in writing that a costs application will be made (e.g. if he does not withdraw the claim) together with a schedule of costs so that the Claimant has an opportunity to later contest the costs being sought if he wants.
