Stages Involved in Employment Law
- Taking initial instructions, reviewing documents and advising on merits and compensation (this is likely to change throughout a case)
- Contacting ACAS to certify that we can proceed on behalf of the client
- If the case proceeds, filing of an ET1 form online and waiting the response of the ET3 form from the employer
- Taking of witness statements, dealing with disclosure of documents and evidence to support claim
- Complying with court orders, case management hearings and directions from the court
- Preparing bundles for trials including skeleton argument trial
Additional information
Employment cases can take anywhere between 6 – 12 months from the point of first contact with the client to reaching a resolution, whether that is inside or outside of court. Cases are usually shorter were the client and the employer respond quicker to procedures such as the ET1 and ET3 forms. However, procedures within the court can extend the duration of a case.
