Employment Tribunal, Will I Lose Out If I Win?

    Lavalamp - have you checked your home insurance policy to see if you have legal cover? This normally covers employment tribunals and will pay £50k (or more) for solicitors advise and fees.

    Generally, they expect you to use the people they have contracts with, not appoint your own.

    I think there's a lot of confusion about what no win, no fee means. It means that if you lose then there is no fee to pay. If you win, there is! In employment tribunals getting costs awarded is unusual so the chances of getting your costs covered are low - so win and you pay your costs. It isn't a free legal service.
