Legal Expenses Insurance
Withdrawing settlement offers
It’s very unusual for a company to decrease an offer which they’ve already made to an employee – that amount will normally go up, not down.
Evidence
It is really useful for to you keep records of your dispute at work. This provides a contemporaneous note and as memories fade over time it is really strong evidence to have.
Tribunals
We are very experienced in Tribunal cases, but normally we try and negotiate a settlement first.
Sick leave
If you feel too stressed to work then your GP should give you a sick note.
Timeframes
When time is of the essence, and you need advice today, we can respond extremely quickly.
Conflicts of interest
We don’t represent employers, so there is never a conflict of interest.
Lists of solicitors
If you need to have a settlement agreement reviewed and signed, your employer will pay the fee required for this. You can choose any solicitor you would like, including Monaco Solicitors even if we are not on your employer’s list, and your employer will still have to pay the signing fee.
