Ladygooner Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Can anyone recommend an Employment Lawyer - hopefully one that is not too expensive?

IlonaM Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 You can search online at the Law Society Find a Lawyer: http://www.lawsociety.org.uk/find-a-solicitor/Also have a look at Chambers Directory for lawyers with peer recommendations: http://www.chambersandpartners.com/ukFor London - employee they list: Employment: Employee: London Band 1 Slater & Gordon Lawyers Band 2 Bindmans LLP, Leigh Day & Co Band 3 Ferguson Solicitors LLP, Pattinson & Brewer, Simpson Millar LLP, Stewarts Law LLPBindmans, Leigh Day & Co, and Pattinson & Brewer are all firms with strong reputations that I know as a non-practising solicitor. Bindmans represented a colleague of mine in an employment matter in the past. Both Bindmans & Leigh Day and Co do a lot of human rights work. You can see more info, peer reviews and contact details at Chambers & Partyners website (http://www.chambersandpartners.com/uk/Editorial/72761).

IlonaM Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Another option is to join a union i.e. GMB. You'll get free advice & representation for employment issues as part of your membership.

Mrs TP Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Look at your home buildings and contents insurance and see if you have family legal protection - it won't cover you for initial advice but if you need to take action relating to employment then they will fund a solicitor (within limits).
