Losing your job can be a difficult and uncertain experience, particularly if you believe your dismissal was unfair.

Depending on the circumstances, you may be able to challenge the decision. Your rights can depend on factors including your employment status, length of service, the reason for dismissal and the process followed by your employer.

The Law Group can review your individual circumstances, explain your options and provide practical advice on the best way forward.

If you have concerns about a dismissal from work, contact our Employment Law team for advice:

Experts flag single market benefits but urge caution
Experts say that re-joining the EU single market could deliver a significant economic boost by removing much of the trade friction and red tape created by Brexit, particularly for the UKโ€™s services sector. Research estimates the move could add ยฃ92bn to GDP and recoup up to 90% of Brexitโ€™s economic hit, while restoring greater labour-market flexibility, investment certainty and attractiveness for foreign direct investment. With 41% of UK exports going to the EU in 2025, closer integration could also strengthen trade and productivity through greater competition. Critics argue that weaker UK competitiveness, limited manufacturing capacity and uncertainty over migration could constrain the upside.

Employment tribunal system in crisis
Employment tribunals are being hindered by a combination of judge shortages, increasingly complex discrimination claims and lengthy proceedings. Outstanding cases have doubled from 32,000 in 2020 to 64,000, with some hearings now listed years ahead. Tribunal running costs in GB have risen from ยฃ40m in 2018 to ยฃ81m, while cases are taking longer and increasingly combine unfair dismissal no with discrimination allegations, which can substantially increase compensation. A major constraint is recruitment and retention of employment judges, particularly in London, where the ยฃ146,000 salary compares poorly with private-sector legal earnings. The decline of trade unions may also mean fewer workers receive advice on whether claims are worth pursuing. Meanwhile, growing use of AI-generated legal arguments is adding further complexity for judges. The system faces another test when the Employment Rights Act takes effect, allowing workers to bring certain claims after six months rather than two years. Government estimates suggest claims could rise 15%โ€“17%, while employment lawyers predict a much larger increase. The result risks further delays and costs for employers, claimants and the wider justice system.
