At My Law Solicitors, we are specialist employment law solicitors advising employees and businesses across Doncaster and the surrounding areas. We provide clear, practical legal advice on workplace issues, helping you understand your legal position and make informed decisions with confidence.

Specialist Employment Law Advice for Doncaster

We advise on all areas of employment law, including settlement agreements, unfair dismissal, workplace discrimination, redundancy, whistleblowing, and Employment Tribunal claims. Whether you need straightforward guidance or representation in a complex dispute, our experienced team is here to help.

We offer flexible appointments by telephone, video call, or in person, allowing us to provide a responsive and accessible service to clients across Doncaster.

Settlement Agreement Solicitors Supporting Doncaster

Settlement agreements are one of the most common areas we advise on. If you have been offered a settlement agreement, we will carefully review the terms, explain your rights, and, where appropriate, negotiate an improved financial package or more favourable terms on your behalf.

In the vast majority of cases, your employer will contribute towards or fully cover our legal fees, meaning you can often obtain specialist legal advice without paying for it yourself.

We focus on delivering high-quality employment law advice without unnecessary complexity. Our approach is straightforward, efficient, and tailored to your individual circumstances, ensuring you receive practical support when you need it most.

Frequently Asked Questions.

What does an employment solicitor do?

An employment solicitor advises both employees and employers on their legal rights and responsibilities in the workplace. They help clients understand employment law, resolve workplace disputes and, where necessary, represent them during negotiations or Employment Tribunal proceedings.

For employees, an employment solicitor can advise on a wide range of workplace issues, including unfair dismissal, constructive dismissal, redundancy, discrimination, harassment, whistleblowing, disciplinary and grievance procedures, unpaid wages, breaches of contract and Settlement Agreements. They can also negotiate directly with an employer to help secure the best possible outcome, whether that involves improved compensation, an agreed reference or amendments to the terms of an exit.

For employers, an employment solicitor provides practical advice on managing employees fairly, lawfully and in accordance with employment legislation. This may include drafting employment contracts and workplace policies, advising on disciplinary and grievance procedures, managing redundancies, dealing with performance and capability issues, responding to discrimination complaints and defending Employment Tribunal claims.

At My Law Solicitors, we provide clear, practical employment law advice tailored to your individual circumstances. Whether you need urgent advice following a dismissal, assistance reviewing or negotiating a Settlement Agreement, or ongoing support with a workplace dispute, our specialist employment solicitors are here to help.

Although we have a dedicated employment law presence in Doncaster, we advise clients across South Yorkshire and throughout England and Wales. Appointments are available by telephone, video call or in person, making it easy to access expert employment law advice in the way that best suits you.

How much does an employment solicitor cost?

The cost of an employment solicitor will depend on the type of advice you need and the complexity of your matter. Some employment law firms charge by the hour, while others offer fixed-fee services, giving you certainty over your legal costs from the outset.

At My Law Solicitors, we believe in transparent pricing and, wherever possible, offer fixed fees so that you know exactly what to expect. We will always explain our fees before any chargeable work is undertaken, ensuring there are no unexpected legal bills.

In many cases, obtaining legal advice may cost less than you think. For example, if you have been offered a Settlement Agreement, it is common for your employer to contribute towards, or even fully cover, the cost of your independent legal advice. This means you may be able to receive expert legal advice without paying any legal fees yourself.

For more complex matters, such as Employment Tribunal claims or ongoing workplace disputes, the cost will depend on the nature of the case and the work involved. We will discuss your circumstances with you, explain the funding options available and provide clear information about the likely costs before you decide how to proceed.

If you would like to discuss your situation, our specialist employment solicitors are happy to arrange an initial discussion to understand your circumstances and explain how we can help. We advise clients in Doncaster, throughout South Yorkshire and across England and Wales, providing clear, practical employment law advice with straightforward, transparent pricing.

When should I contact an employment solicitor?

It is often best to contact an employment solicitor as early as possible. Seeking legal advice at an early stage can help you understand your rights, avoid costly mistakes and, in many cases, resolve a workplace issue before it escalates.

You should consider speaking to an employment solicitor if you have been dismissed, are facing redundancy, have been offered a Settlement Agreement, are experiencing discrimination or harassment, or have concerns about disciplinary or grievance proceedings. Legal advice can also be invaluable if you believe your employer has breached your contract, failed to pay you correctly, treated you unfairly or subjected you to a detriment for whistleblowing.

Many employment law claims are subject to strict time limits. For example, most Employment Tribunal claims must be started within three months less one day of the relevant event, although the exact deadline will depend on the circumstances of your case. Delaying legal advice can therefore reduce your options and, in some cases, prevent you from bringing a claim altogether.

Even if you are unsure whether you have a legal claim, obtaining early legal advice can provide clarity and help you make informed decisions about how to proceed. In many cases, an employment solicitor can resolve a workplace dispute through negotiation, avoiding the need for formal Employment Tribunal proceedings altogether.

At My Law Solicitors, we advise clients at every stage of an employment dispute, from initial concerns through to negotiated settlements and Employment Tribunal claims. We advise clients in Doncaster, throughout South Yorkshire and across England and Wales, offering appointments in person, by telephone and by video call to ensure expert employment law advice is available when you need it.

Can an employment solicitor negotiate with my employer?

Yes. One of the key roles of an employment solicitor is to negotiate with your employer on your behalf to help achieve the best possible outcome.

Having a solicitor act for you can often level the playing field, particularly where your employer has access to HR professionals or legal advisers. An experienced employment solicitor will understand the strengths and weaknesses of your case and negotiate from an informed legal position to protect your interests.

Negotiations may take place in a wide range of situations, including Settlement Agreements, redundancy exercises, disciplinary and grievance procedures, discrimination claims, unfair dismissal disputes and Employment Tribunal claims. Depending on your circumstances, a solicitor may be able to negotiate a higher financial settlement, an agreed reference, amendments to restrictive covenants, payment of notice or bonus entitlements, an agreed leaving date, or changes to the wording of a Settlement Agreement.

In many cases, successful negotiation can resolve a workplace dispute without the need to commence Employment Tribunal proceedings, saving both time and expense. Even where tribunal proceedings have already started, negotiations can continue at any stage, and many claims are resolved through settlement before reaching a final hearing.

At My Law Solicitors, we regularly negotiate with employers on behalf of employees to help secure fair, practical and commercially sensible outcomes. We advise clients in Doncaster, throughout South Yorkshire and across England and Wales. Whether you have been offered a Settlement Agreement or are involved in another workplace dispute, our specialist employment solicitors can advise you on your options and negotiate confidently on your behalf.

Do you represent employees and employers?

Yes. At My Law Solicitors, we advise both employees and employers on a wide range of employment law matters. Acting for both sides gives us valuable insight into how workplace disputes are approached from different perspectives, allowing us to provide practical, commercially focused advice tailored to each client’s circumstances.

For employees, we advise on Settlement Agreements, unfair dismissal, constructive dismissal, redundancy, discrimination, whistleblowing, disciplinary and grievance procedures, unpaid wages, breaches of contract and Employment Tribunal claims. We work to protect your rights, explain your legal options and help you achieve the best possible outcome, whether through negotiation or formal legal proceedings.

For employers, we provide proactive employment law advice to help businesses manage their workforce confidently and minimise legal risk. Our services include drafting employment contracts and workplace policies, providing HR support, advising on disciplinary and grievance procedures, redundancy processes, performance and capability issues, discrimination claims, Settlement Agreements and defending Employment Tribunal claims.

Although we act for both employees and employers, we never act for both parties in the same matter. If a conflict of interest arises, we will not act, ensuring that every client receives independent, confidential legal advice.

Whether you are an employee seeking advice about your workplace rights or an employer looking for specialist employment law support, we advise clients in Doncaster, throughout South Yorkshire and across England and Wales. Our specialist employment solicitors provide clear, practical advice tailored to your individual circumstances.
