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. |
