Unfair Dismissal

What Constitutes Unfair Dismissal?

The 'dismissal' of an employee with at least 2 years' service will generally be 'unfair' unless:

1. The employer can show that the reason (or principal reason) for the 'dismissal' was one of the five potentially fair reasons: capability or qualifications; conduct; redundancy; restriction and "some other substantial reason".
2. The tribunal finds that, in all the circumstances (including the employer's size and administrative resources) the employer acted reasonably in treating that reason as a sufficient reason for dismissal.

At Premier Solicitors, our experienced client focused employment team can be relied upon to provide expert practical legal advice to help you sift through your documentation and assess the merits of any potential claim if you believe you were unfairly treated.

We offer an initial consultation and review of your documents at an initial fixed cost, which also enables us to consider cases for a No Win No Fee arrangement if they entertain reasonable prospects of success.
