We advise employees from all walks of life who need advice while still in their job or who have already been dismissed for any of a number of reasons โ both lawful and unlawful.
You need clear advice on your situation and your options for dealing with it. At Patch Law we pride ourselves on providing an empathetic and expert service to do just that. Whilst we cannot offer free advice, Patch Law aims to offer as affordable a service as possible so that you can access the advice you need swiftly.
Our promise is that every client will receive customer service that is second to none โ including out of hours telephone appointments if required - and you will not need to be โchasing'. This prompt attention is often crucial to meet the tight time limits for employment matters but also helps to alleviate the inevitable anxiety you are likely to be feeling.
Unlike some employment law firms, Patch Law does not focus purely on executives when taking on new employee clients, believing that everyone - whatever their status in an organisationโs hierarchy - is entitled to access high quality and honest advice to resolve their difficulty. Patch Lawโs employee clients range from gardeners, cleaners and care workers through to professionals, senior directors and CEOs.
You can expect Patch Law to:
We understand that if you have been dismissed from work or fear this may happen soon, costs are likely to be at the front of your mind. We have a range of fixed fee packages that can help you understand the legal situation without going over budget. These sessions can leave you better equipped to resolve the issue yourself, point you in the direction of other suitable help, or give guidance on whether it is worth investing more to fully pursue your case.
If it is necessary to apply to the Employment Tribunal to resolve your complaint, it is worth checking whether you are covered by legal expenses insurance, often included as an add-on to your household insurance policy. If so, Patch Law can then represent you at no cost to you. Please see our pricing guidelines for more information.
Iโve not much experience elsewhere of dealing with legal firms, but I have no hesitation in recommending both Gillian and Amanda unreservedly, both in terms of legal advice but also emotional support through what can be very traumatic processes.
Professor,
