Trouble with a dismissal or workplace bullying? Don't leave it to chance
How we can help
An accident at work — or on the way there — changes your daily life overnight, and you often face an insurer or an employer alone who will not readily accept what is due. We make sure the accident is properly recognised and claim the compensation and benefits you are entitled to.
Being humiliated, isolated, deliberately overloaded or made miserable until you leave is not “just work”: it can be bullying, and the law protects you. We help you document what is happening and act on it, whether you want it stopped or you need compensation.
Being dismissed from one day to the next, often without an explanation that holds up, is a blow financially and personally. Before you sign anything or accept the final settlement, let us review your case: many dismissals that look final do not in fact meet what the law requires, and that can mean higher compensation or even reinstatement.
Being treated unequally because of your age, sex, pregnancy, disability, background or any other personal characteristic — in recruitment, pay or promotion — is unlawful, even when it is dressed up as a business decision. We help you identify it and bring a claim.
Being caught up in a collective redundancy or furlough process brings real uncertainty about your finances, especially when the procedure looks wrong or the selection of those affected looks unfair. We check whether it was done lawfully and defend your rights within the process.
When an employer unilaterally changes your hours, pay, duties or place of work without following the legal procedure, you do not simply have to accept it. We assess whether the change is lawful and challenge it if it is not.
If your employer proposes that you leave “by agreement” or sign a settlement, that is the worst moment to decide alone and in a hurry. We go through the offer with you before anything is signed, to make sure you are not giving up more than you realise.
If you suspect your employer is not meeting its obligations — irregular contracts, undeclared hours, health and safety failures — the labour inspectorate can step in. We help you frame the complaint properly and stay with you throughout.
Working and not being paid what you are owed — full wages, overtime or arrears — is not something to put up with until the company catches up. We help you claim what is due, even where the business no longer exists or is in difficulty.
Having the social security authority or the insurer refuse to recognise the degree of incapacity you actually have, or sign you off as fit before you are ready to work, is deeply unjust when you are already unwell. We help you appeal that decision with the right medical and legal evidence.
Signing a contract without fully understanding a clause — exclusivity, non-compete, fixed term — can restrict you far more than you expect later on. Before you sign, or afterwards if you have doubts, we help you understand exactly what you agreed to and what room you have.
You do not have to accept a sanction or warning that feels unfair or disproportionate. We assess whether it stands up and, if it does not, challenge it before it goes on your record.
When an employer’s decision — a dismissal, a sanction, a change of terms — is really retaliation for having complained, for being pregnant, for exercising trade union rights or the like, this is something more serious than an ordinary employment dispute, with stronger legal protection. We help you identify it and pursue it accordingly.
