Employment Tribunal Guides

Use these claimant-focused guides to understand the employment tribunal process before deciding whether you need a case review, ET1 preparation or representation.

What this guide covers

This guide explains the practical steps claimants need to understand, the common mistakes to avoid and the point at which professional support can change the outcome.

Common mistake

Claimants often tell every detail in the order it happened without separating legally relevant facts from background context. A tribunal claim needs both a human story and a legal structure.

Next step

If your deadline is close, your employer is represented or your ET1 is not yet drafted, a ProHearings case review can identify the safest route before you commit.
