Business / Employment Law
Our employment law team at Gorvins has the expertise and capability to deal with every stage of an employment tribunal process, from the preparation of your defence to acting for you at the final hearing. In circumstances where your business faces a claim, the assistance and representation we offer can lead your defence to its best conclusion.
Our experts will give you the best prospect of achieving your desired result. We will employ every means possible to defend your case or engage in negotiations to resolve the case on as favourable terms as possible, by providing robust, commercial advice. Either way, we give you the best advice and represent your best interests in everything we do.
We can be as involved in a tribunal defence as you would like, either taking all the weight from your shoulders in running the case for you or simply assisting you behind the scenes in situations where you feel confident enough to lead and present the case on your own.
Although the employment tribunal system is designed to be less formal than some other courts, it still carries full legal force and should therefore not be taken lightly. Once a Claimant’s ET1 Form is received, your business is the ‘Respondent’ and should not delay in preparing its defence. This will include preparing documentation and witnesses for the hearing. It may also be that you will need to consider bringing a counter-claim for breach of contract.
Our employment team includes specialists in tribunal representation. In circumstances where your business faces a claim, the business-centred services and experience available through Gorvins give you the best chance possible of reaching your desired result.
