Funding your Dismissal or Discrimination Claim
Many people who have been unfairly dismissed or experience discrimination at work, don't take their case to an Employment Tribunal because they are worried about the legal costs.
This should not prevent you from taking action. Liddy's can give you advice on how to fund your Employment Tribunal Case with:
A No Win - No Fee-type Agreement
In legal terms, this is called a Contingency Fee Agreement. This means if you lose your case, there are no fees to pay. If you win, your legal fees are based on a percentage of the damages awarded to you. With this No Win - No Fee type agreement, you do not have to pay any fees up-front to take your case to an Employment Tribunal.
Your Home Insurance
Many people's home insurance includes legal expenses cover. This means your insurance company might pay the legal fees involved in taking your case to an Employment Tribunal. You should check your insurance policy to see if you have legal expenses cover.
