Employment Claims without a Lawyer
A Handbook for Litigants in Person, Revised 2nd edition
About this book
Managing an employment dispute or representing yourself or your small organisation in an employment tribunal can be daunting but, with the help of this book, now in its second edition, it is not impossible.
This fully revised second edition of Employment Claims without a Lawyer: A Handbook for Litigants in Person leads you through the whole process in clear plain language so that you can get a complete view of what's involved and how to best present your case. The author, David Curwen, is a barrister with 35 years of experience representing claimants and businesses and has distilled his experience to provide the practical tips and background law you need to take on this task with greater confidence.
Importantly he also covers the steps that both the employee and employer need to consider when a problem first arises and before it gets to a formal claim.
So whether you are representing yourself because you cannot afford to involve professional advisors or you are involved in a potential claim and want to know more about the process, this book is essential reading.
