We have been contacted by some workers outside of the UK suggesting that they have been offered employment with this firm though an agency. Please be aware that this firm has no relationship with any recruitment agency or similar to engage overseas workers. We are sorry that people are being misled through the misuse of our name.

Disabled employees and workers have additional rights and protections in the workplace through the Equality Act 2010. Such rights are protections are clearly needed as recent studies have identified that almost half of disabled people in employment consider they have suffered in the workplace because of their disability.
Unfortunately, public perceptions of what is and is not a disability can lead to misunderstandings about who is protected under the Equality Act 2010. I often speak to people who are struggling at work because of a physical or mental condition and did not know they had rights and protections available to them.
These are difficult times and many employees are having to look to the Employment Tribunal to safeguard their employment rights. If you need help with your employment matter, call us for a free enquiry on 01522 440512. If you need some guidance on the Employment Tribunal process, please read on.
One of the frequent questions we receive from employees who are the subject of disciplinary action is whether they should resign rather than go through the disciplinary process. This is not an easy question to answer or an easy decision for the employee to make as there are many considerations. If you would like help from a fully qualified specialist employment solicitor please call us for a free, no obligation, telephone consultation on 01522 440512. Alternatively, for more information about your choices when subjected to a disciplinary process, read on.
I recently completed an Employment Tribunal claim for my disabled client. This was an extremely complex matter, not only because of my client’s medical conditions but, also, in respect of the types of disability discrimination claims she was pursuing at the Employment Tribunal. Please read on for further information.
I received a call today from a lovely gentleman who told me he had been dismissed by his employer. From the circumstances he described, I considered he would have an excellent claim for age discrimination and unfair dismissal at the Employment Tribunal. However, things got quite frantic when he told me the dates of the discrimination he suffered and his dismissal!
We will be closing our offices (and opening the Quality Street) on 23 December 2022 at 3.30pm. We will reopen (with tighter waistbands) on 3 January 2023.
From all at Lincs Law Employment Solicitors, we wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
It is an unfortunate sign of the times that we are receiving increasingly frequent enquiries from employees who have been subjected to Pregnancy and Maternity Discrimination. We would always advise any person who is subjected to discriminatory behaviour by their employer to take independent legal advice. Of course, we hope they would contact us at Lincs Law Employment Solicitors. However, if you are considering raising your own complaint or representing yourself at the Employment Tribunal, we set out below some general guidance.
Are you representing yourself at the Employment Tribunal? Do you need assistance, but you are worried about costs of seeking legal advice? This post sets out how Lincs Law Employment Solicitors can help.
