Employment & Workplace lawyers in Scotland

Employment lawyers advise employees and employers on unfair and constructive dismissal, redundancy, settlement agreements, discrimination and harassment, contracts, and tribunal claims. Strict time limits apply to tribunal claims, often three months, so early advice matters. A short consultation clarifies whether you have a claim or exposure and the most cost-effective way to resolve it.

Scotland has its own distinct legal system, separate from England and Wales, with solicitors and advocates as the main legal professions. Cases are heard in the Sheriff Courts, the Court of Session, the High Court of Justiciary and Scottish tribunals.

Unfair dismissal, redundancy, settlement agreements, discrimination

How it is charged

Employer-paid contribution common for settlement advice; fixed or hourly otherwise

Typical starting cost

From a low-cost consultation; settlement agreement advice often subsidised

Frequently asked questions

What is the time limit for an employment tribunal claim?+

Most tribunal claims must be started within three months less one day of the event, after going through Acas early conciliation. Because the window is short and strict, it is important to take advice as soon as a problem arises.

Do I have to pay for settlement agreement advice?+

When your employer asks you to sign a settlement agreement, they usually contribute towards your legal advice, which can cover most or all of the cost. Your lawyer will confirm this before you proceed.

Can a lawyer help if I have been unfairly dismissed?+

Yes. A lawyer can assess whether your dismissal was fair, what compensation might be available, and whether to negotiate an exit or bring a tribunal claim. A short consultation gives you a clear, realistic picture.
