My employer has started disciplinary proceedings

Facing disciplinary proceedings can be an extremely worrying time, and it is important for you to understand what your rights and obligations are to ensure that you are not treated unfairly.

If you have been told that your employer is to commence disciplinary proceedings against you, we can help.

How DAS Law can help you

Our highly experienced team of over 30 employment lawyers can provide you with practical legal advice and representation at an Employment Tribunal if you are facing disciplinary proceedings.

These are some of the possible outcomes we can achieve for you:

  • Review your contract of employment to help you understand what your rights and obligations are between you and your employer.
  • Advise you of the options available to you.
  • Prepare any documents to support you through the process.
  • Liaise with your employers throughout the disciplinary process.

    • Important things to consider

    Here are some important things you should be aware of regarding your legal problem.

    • Our lawyers are highly experienced in handling many types of disputes.
    • Please ensure that you keep copies of all documents relating to the disciplinary proceedings.
    • It is important for you to read and understand the disciplinary procedures that your employer has in place.

    How much will it cost?

    If you would like DAS Law to help you with your disciplinary proceedings, there are a number of ways of funding your legal costs, including:

    Legal Expenses Insurance (LEI)

     If you have a motor or home insurance policy which includes Legal Expenses Insurance (LEI) cover, your legal costs may be covered by your policy (subject to the terms and conditions of the policy). If you are unsure if your insurance policy includes LEI cover, we will check this with you.

    Personal Funds

    If you do not have LEI cover, we can still deal with your dispute on a fixed fee basis, offering you clarity on your legal costs.

    Our employment law specialists will be happy to explain all of these options to you.

    What should you do next?

    If you would like to speak to an employment expert about your dispute, please contact us by calling 0345 604 7298, or email enquiries@daslaw.co.uk.
