Clear strategy, strong defence, minimal disruption
Employment disputes are an inevitable part of business — but with the right legal partner, they don’t have to be disruptive. Shoosmiths supports employers through every stage of the tribunal process, from early case assessment to final hearing.
We provide clear, commercial advice on merits at the outset together with the estimated value of the claim and recommended next steps, so you can make informed decisions quickly.
Our team is known for its straight-talking approach and deep understanding of how employment tribunals work. We handle claims involving unfair dismissal, discrimination, whistleblowing, equal pay, and more — always tailoring our strategy to your business priorities. Where early resolution is appropriate, we lead Acas early conciliation and settlement negotiations to achieve cost-effective outcomes.
If a case proceeds to hearing, our experienced advocates ensure your business is fully prepared and supported. We focus on reducing impact, protecting your reputation, and presenting your case with clarity and assuredness.
