Privacy during dismissal and employment tribunal claim

[ULA]

If it does not work out with the law firm you are going to speak with and you then need further assistance then you can always come back to this thread.

Good luck.

Thank you.

The law firm has yet to speak to me as their customer relations manager is away from the business due to sick leave. So I need to be prepared for the possibility that I may have to represent myself. The ET Judge did everything they could to tell me (without actually saying it) that I need to amend my claim. How would I go about doing that?

You will need to make an application to the Tribunal, which you will need to state is in accordance with rule 29 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013, allowing for a party to amend their claim. You will then need to:

1. Set out your reasons for making the amendments
2. State what the amendment are.
3. Set out the effect the amendment will have on the proceedings.

Given that you feel you were given the indication to do this from the judge you many want to add that an order in the terms requested would assist the tribunal in dealing with the proceedings efficiently and fairly and in accordance with the overriding objective for the following reasons xxxxxxxxx and set these reasons out.

Make sure you confirm that you have complied with rules 30(2) and 92 of the ET Rules by providing a copy of the correspondence to the respondent (you can copy them into the email to the Tribunal) and that you have advised them that any objection to your application must be sent to the tribunal office as soon as possible and copied to ourselves
