Employment law is complicated, which is why it is so important for your business to get the right legal advice as soon as you become aware of a potential legal problem.

If you have been involved in a legal dispute and have been unable to reach a satisfactory resolution, you need to ensure that you are receiving the right legal support to protect your business.

DAS Law is authorised and regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority and has a team of experts specialising in employment law.

We are able to guide you through the process, from assessing the strength and risk of a claim against your business to ensuring that if the matter progresses to a hearing you are robustly defended at an employment tribunal.

How it works in practice

Unlike some of our competitors who charge by the hour, we offer a range of transparent fixed fee employment products which are broken down into three stages to mirror the litigation process. This way you know how much each stage of the process will cost, helping you budget and weigh up the best way forward. Each stage of the process will usually take 1-3 months.

Here is what we offer at each stage:
