Employment Law by its very nature can be unpredictable and there are various factors throughout any litigation which can affect the time and ultimately the costs incurred.<\/p><p>In Employment Law, our fees are based on an hourly rate and at the outset of your matter you will be assigned a solicitor and will be advised of their hourly rate. It is difficult to estimate how many hours will be required until full details of the matter have been disclosed and even at that stage there are various factors which can make an estimate difficult.<\/p><p>In most cases, disputes can be resolved before the costs of a full hearing at a tribunal have been incurred. However, in the event that a claim for unfair or wrongful dismissal goes to a hearing, including a 1-day hearing and assuming a straight forward process, our fees would be in the region of \u00a38,000.00 \u2013 \u00a310,000.00 plus VAT. This would include the following stages and estimated time-scales:<\/p><ul><li>Issue of proceedings (1-4 weeks from instruction)<\/li><li>Preliminary hearing (2-4 months)<\/li><li>Disclosure of documents (4-6 months)<\/li><li>Drafting and exchange of witness statements (4-8 months)<\/li><li>Representation at the final hearing (8-12 months)<\/li><li>Day to day management of your case.<\/li><\/ul><p>This is based on a senior solicitor dealing with the matter and utilising more junior members of staff where appropriate. Fees will tend to be lower where a more junior solicitor is instructed, and higher where a solicitor of greater experience is instructed. A Director will supervise all matters. A list of the hourly rates of our solicitors can be found below.<\/p><p>Our fees are calculated by reference to the hourly rates set out below and are based on the time we spend dealing with your case. There is VAT to pay on those rates, plus any expenses that are incurred.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-28b7583
