Look for a Bristol employment solicitor with experience in your type of matter, such as unfair dismissal, discrimination, redundancy or a settlement agreement. Check that the solicitor or firm is regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA), and ask about their experience, likely costs and funding options before instructing them. Employment claims can have strict time limits, and you may need to contact ACAS for early conciliation before bringing a tribunal claim. Take relevant documents, including your contract, correspondence and dismissal or grievance records, to an initial consultation.
