An Employment Tribunal compensatory award is the ultimate goal of most claimants. Increasingly however, this does not resolve the dispute.

Vaping at Work: How can employers best protect the health of the workforce & support smokers wanting to stop?
E-cigarettes can appear to offer a painless way of giving up smoking and getting round the smoking ban, allowing smokers to get their nicotine “hit.”.

We Look At The Law Differently

“Equal justice under law is not merely a caption on the facade of the Supreme Court. It is perhaps the most inspiring ideal of our society. … It is fundamental that justice should be the same, in substance and availability, without regard to economic status.”

Lewis Powell Supreme Court Justice

United States

The Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 (LASPO) introduced funding cuts to legal aid, meaning fewer people can access free legal advice. Since 2012, legal aid has no longer been available for early advice, including housing and family law. Without legal aid for early advice, legal problems can escalate unnecessarily and cause issues such as poor health, debt and homelessness. As a result of escalating legal problems, a lack of early legal advice can increase taxpayer costs and the burden on the courts.
