Employment issues may impact not only on your work but your private life and even your health. If you believe you have been discriminated against or unfairly dismissed or otherwise mistreated at work; if you believe you rights have been breached, we can help you.
How we can help:
We run a fortnightly employment law advice clinic on Mondays where volunteer advisers can advise you on a wide range of employment problems. This is a telephone only service and you will need to book in advance. Call us on 020 7538 4909 to see if we can help and make an appointment.
In addition to our advice clinic, we can provide an appointment-based employment advice service, providing guidance and support on the following:
- Discrimination/harassment/victimisation cases
- Cases involving equality of terms
- Dismissal cases (including unfair dismissal, constructive dismissal, wrongful dismissal, TUPE dismissals)
- Redundancy
- Unlawful deduction from your wages
- Maternity and parental rights
- Flexible working requests
- Cases where you believe to have suffered a detriment for exercising a right
- TUPE cases (transfers to a new employer)
- Issues relating to your employment status and contracts of employment.
- Issue arising from the Covid-19 Pandemic
- Employment tribunal proceedings, whether you have already brought them to are considering starting a claim
- Independent advice on settlement agreements
We can provide you with advice and information whether you are an employee, agency worker, casual or contract worker.
Subject to our available capacity we might be able to take on a small number of cases or offer limited casework. However, due to our very limited resources and the many inquiries we receive, please bear in mind that we cannot guarantee to take on a particular case or to be able to represent you at every hearing, even if we take on your case.
If we offer to assist you with your issue, we will discuss with you the options to fund your case. In exceptional circumstances we may consider assisting you free of charge.
If you are experiencing discrimination, you may be eligible for Legal Aid. Check whether you are eligible here.

This means you can afford a lawyer and if you choose an expert in employment law, you will get the best result.
