Honest assessment of your claim

Whether your dismissal, discrimination, or wage dispute has realistic prospects — and a plain explanation of why, not legal jargon.

✓

Compensation estimate

What your claim could be worth — basic award, compensatory award (up to £115,115), or uncapped discrimination damages — based on your circumstances.

✓

Funding options explained

Whether no win no fee, legal expenses insurance, or fixed-fee arrangements are available for your claim type — before you commit to anything.

Common Questions

Before you submit your request.

Do I have a case — how can I tell before speaking to anyone?

The most reliable way is a free consultation with a specialist. As a general guide: if you were dismissed within the last 3 months (less one day) without a fair reason or fair procedure, if you resigned due to your employer's conduct, or if you were treated differently because of a protected characteristic (age, disability, sex, race, pregnancy, religion, sexual orientation) — these are the most common grounds. Submit your request and a solicitor will give you an honest assessment.

How much does it cost to bring an employment tribunal claim?

There are no court fees — employment tribunal fees were abolished in 2017. For legal representation, many employment solicitors offer no win no fee (conditional fee agreements) for claims with strong prospects. Others offer fixed fees or hourly rates. The solicitor will explain all funding options in the free consultation before you commit to anything.

How long does an employment tribunal claim take?

Simple claims (unpaid wages, holiday pay) can settle in 2–4 months. Unfair dismissal claims typically take 6–12 months to reach a hearing. Discrimination claims, which are more complex, can take 12–18 months. Many cases settle before the hearing — often after Early Conciliation or once legal proceedings are issued. A solicitor can give a realistic timeline for your specific claim.

I think I've missed my 3-month deadline — is it too late?

Not necessarily. The time limit is paused while ACAS Early Conciliation is ongoing, and there are limited grounds for extension where it was "not reasonably practicable" to comply. If you are close to or past the deadline, submit your request immediately — flag the urgency in the form — so a solicitor can assess whether you still have an avenue. Do not wait.

Can I claim if I've only worked for my employer a short time?

For standard unfair dismissal you need 2 years' continuous service. However, automatically unfair dismissals carry no qualifying period — these include dismissals for whistleblowing, pregnancy or maternity, asserting a statutory right, or trade union membership. Discrimination claims under the Equality Act 2010 also apply from day one, regardless of service length.
