Look for a Manchester employment solicitor with experience in your type of matter, such as unfair dismissal, discrimination, redundancy or settlement agreements. Check whether they are regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA), ask about their likely fees and funding options, and confirm who will handle your case. Time limits can be short: many Employment Tribunal claims must begin within three months less one day, subject to ACAS Early Conciliation rules. Gather relevant documents and seek advice promptly from a regulated solicitor or consult the official gov.uk and ACAS guidance.
