Constructive Unfair Dismissal

Constructive Unfair Dismissal

Our Services

Work with our Employment Law Specialists in Leamington Spa and Warwickshire

If you feel that you have no choice but to resign because of something serious which your employer has done (or failed to do), you may be able to claim constructive unfair dismissal.

To be eligible to bring a constructive unfair dismissal claim in the Employment Tribunal, you need to have two years’ continuous employment prior to the date of termination of employment, although there are some exceptions to this.

In order to succeed in a constructive unfair dismissal claim, there are certain legal tests which you will need to meet. It is important to seek expert advice, if you wish to make a constructive unfair dismissal claim, ideally before you decide to resign.

At Blythe Liggins, we provide strategic legal advice to help you understand your legal position so you can make an informed decision about whether to resign and make a claim for constructive unfair dismissal or pursue another route.

We help individuals across Warwickshire and the UK, with expert employment legal advice.
