An Employment Law Specialist
The first tip you need to know about is to always hire a solicitor who specialises in employment law. This will ensure that your case is being handled by someone who understands what they are doing and the laws behind it. They will also be able to offer you the best solution based on what the law allows.
Who They Work With
Most people will assume that hiring an employment solicitor who only works for employees or employers will be the best solution. This is not always the case because these solicitors could have a one-sided viewpoint.
You should look at hiring an employment solicitor that has experience working with both employers and employees.
Doing this will ensure that you get a solicitor that has insight into how both sides of a case will be affected. This will enable them to create the best possible strategy for your case.
The Experience
Another tip is to hire an employment solicitor that has experience presenting and handling cases before employment tribunals. This is where your case will be heard and if the solicitor does not have the experience, they could present something incorrectly.
To determine this, you will need to ask the solicitor about the number of cases they have presented to employment tribunals over the past year.
You should look for a solicitor that puts their advice in writing to you after the initial consultation. This is very important because employment law can be very technical and complicated. The written advice will help you to prepare for any internal grievances and disciplinary meetings that might be scheduled.
The advice will highlight the strengths and weaknesses of your claim or defence. With this, you can determine how to improve your case to ensure that you are taken seriously. If you do not have a written advice letter, you could forget some of the information which was provided in the initial consultation.
A Transparent Fee Structure
The cost of an employment solicitor will need to be taken into account. You should never agree to work with a solicitor that does not have a transparent fee structure.
This should be set out in writing during the initial consultation so you have a clear idea of what you will be charged. It is important to note that some employment solicitors will offer free initial consultation while others will charge for this.
