Unfair, Wrongful or Constructive dismissal?

[geishagirl257]

Hi Lindyhop,

 

Newbie here! My own experiences at the hands of a public sector employer has brought me down a similar path with some almighty decisions to make.

 

Prompted by 3 years of hell, (developed chronic fatigue, returned from sick leave to seriously unsympathetic employers who ignored advice from OH, crashed and burned from excessive workload, put in a complaint, managers somehow turned my complaint into a grievance and ruled against me?! appealed, Union shafted me, exhausted, employers won't allow me to take my A/L entitlement and access my holiday pay, exhausted, mad as hell etc etc )

 

I researched everything I could regarding Personal Injury claims which seemed the better option but have been having the familiar 'difficult time' trying to find a NWNF lawyer to represent me. I've since been following your case with interest regarding the ET route (as dismissal on capability is in my near future) and just wanted to know how things were going?

 

Oh and I guess whether anybody else has found a decent lawyer (can I ask that?) or had success with the archetypal 'stress at work' case. I'm tired of reading about case law on these cases (and the winning outcomes) but somehow not being able to find decent lawyers who can represent and win for me!

 

I still have 1 year as of June 2013 before I'm outtatime.

Hello and welcome to CAG.

We don't recommend law firms here. You can search for a lawyer with the right experience in your area by looking on the Law Society website.

 

If you have other questions about your own case, you will need a new thread.

 

My best, HB

Hi

 

not sure if im allowed to mention Lawworks who are similiar to the FRU, but you can make a self referral, they look at the viability of the case - not your income - they are voluntary/probono.

 

google them. my experience with them was excellent and i wish i had heard of them way back.

 

good luck with your case.

 

Regards

Hi Lindyhop, thanks for that. I'll take a look at Lawworks. How are things with you? You mentioned 'letting go of the fight..? I know the exhaustion and the fight you speak of from experiences over the last 3 years.

 

Thanks honeybee13, I've now started a new thread in Employment.
