Can anyone recommend a good and reasonable employment lawyer?
Been having some issues at work and been offered a redundancy package and which I think is a little short. Would like to get an expert involved or at least an opinion |  | | |  |

My former alma mater. Note, if you're not in a TU, joining after the event is unlikely to result in the TU authorising legal assistance.
Also, check your home insurance. Some have legal insurance coverage included, and you might be able to get help there. You can also try calling Citizens Advice, but they're frequently stretched.
Unfortunately, I've not practiced in the UK for years, but DM me and I can give you some thoughts.
Thing to remember with redundancy: it's one of the fair reasons to dismiss a worker, but the employer must follow a fair procedure in the selection process. However, an ET looks objectively at what is 'fair', not at what the worker might think would be a better procedure. |  |

Depending on your time of service I may well have thrown a lot of work your way. |  | | |

Hey all,
Thanks for the advice and direct messages. I joined GMB when I first started getting negative feedback a few months back, so that will help.
They definitely haven't followed proper process so far, but that's also why they are offering me a settlement agreement to get me out the door quickly and easily, hence the my desire to speak to a lawyer. | | | |

In that case, I'm surprised to read you appear to be seeking advice on here first, as opposed to immediately engaging with your GMB rep.
A union rep should be able to advise you at first instance and thereafter, the GMB offer legal support if deemed necessary. Good luck. | |

I'm a Partner at Comptons Solicitors in Camden Town. Happy to give you a free telephone consultation next week if you want, even if I'm just giving you a 2nd opinion as to whether or not you're likely to increase the settlement offer.
DM me if you want, no worries if you've already found some representation. | | | |

Acas don’t give legal advice, but could help negotiate a settlement if you fully engage with their early conciliation process. Worth doing as the potential cost of going to an employment tribunal could be crippling. |  | | |

If you go through ACAS they will sort out a COT3, basically the same as a Settlement Agreement but no legal fees. However if I was you I would ask the union to look over what you have been offered and negotiate on your behalf. I was a full time union office for 13 years and negotiated hundreds of settlements for members. | | | |
