How we examine the decision

We build a neutral chronology and evidence matrix showing what supports, contradicts or does not answer each allegation. Employment Tribunal deadlines are strict and are not paused by internal procedures; obtain authorised advice promptly.

Our review method

  1. Define the decision and deadline. We identify what was decided, by whom, when it took effect and which review, complaint or appeal route applies.
  2. Reconstruct the chronology. Events, documents and changes of position are placed in date order so the reasoning can be tested against what was known at the time.
  3. Map policy to evidence. Each relevant criterion is matched to the material relied on, material overlooked and explanation given.
  4. Separate the available routes. Administrative complaint, statutory review, appeal, regulator and Ombudsman routes are not treated as interchangeable.
  5. State the remedy. The final work identifies a proportionate outcome and the evidence supporting it.

Frequently asked questions

Can you give employment-law advice?

We provide document and procedure support. Regulated claims management, legal merits and Tribunal representation may require an authorised specialist.

Should I appeal an internal outcome?

That depends on the policy, defects identified and deadlines. We can help organise the factual grounds.

Does a grievance pause a Tribunal deadline?

Usually not. Seek urgent specialist advice on limitation and ACAS Early Conciliation.
