Employment Disputes

The CMS UK Employment team works seamlessly across our UK offices in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen, Sheffield, Manchester as well as London, Reading and Bristol. We act for a number clients across eight key sectors, handling employment tribunals as a portfolio, covering the spectrum of claims from wages or holiday pay claims, “straightforward” unfair dismissal and unlawful deductions claims, to extremely complex and high value whistleblowing, discrimination and breach of contract claims as well as union backed claims, and judicial mediations.

This requires a different approach to dealing with ad hoc claims for employer clients; understanding the client’s overall strategy and approach to claims; developing a consistent approach; leveraging synergies in terms of claim management. In addition to providing technically excellent legal advice, we are well versed in troubleshooting and brainstorming with our clients, to deliver, together, terrific results, meaning that clients benefit from our strength of expertise in end to end tribunal management across the UK.
