Redundancy, data protection and the curse of the Data Subject Access Request:
Employment Tribunals, faced with two hostile adversaries, are required calmly to reflect on the evidence before them and to determine both the facts of a claim and the appropriate legal interpretation to place on those facts. Typically, the available documentary evidence is incomplete, records are at times inaccurate (sometimes inadvertently, sometimes by design) and not all witnesses will be available or willing to give evidence. As a result, those on the Employment Tribunal panel, faced with contradictory evidence from the parties, must weigh up such evidence as they have, and try to determine who they believe. Parties need to appreciate that factors which undermine their credibility can have a fatal effect on a claim, regardless of whether they are the claimant or respondent.
PRACTICE AREAS
Valemus Law provides access to all the business legal services offered by regular commercial law firms as well as many of those offered in the personal legal sectors, such as employment and immigration, but we go the extra mile to deliver value. From litigation advice to contract drafting, whether you are a sole trader or an executive within a global corporation, our goal is the same as yours: success. Likewise, our family solicitors in London and around the country are there to offer support, and sound independent legal advice and direction at what can be one of the most difficult times in your life, whether it be a divorce or a dispute in relation to children. Indeed, a number of our family lawyers are solicitor advocates, meaning that they can not only run your case for you, but also represent you in Court, giving you continuity and the peace of mind that your advocate knows your case inside out.
