The best solicitor for an unfair dismissal claim will depend on your circumstances, including the evidence, your employer’s response and your budget. Look for an employment solicitor with relevant tribunal experience, check whether they are regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA), and ask about likely costs, funding options and who will handle your case. Strict time limits usually apply: you generally need to notify Acas for Early Conciliation within three months less one day of the dismissal. A regulated solicitor can assess your situation and explain the prospects, but no outcome can be guaranteed.
