Law firm launches new service to protect against tribunal costs
Trethowans, a leading law firm based across the central South of England, has launched a new service and legal insurance policy package designed to protect businesses from the financial risks associated with employment tribunal claims.
The firm’s new Employment Law Protection Scheme offers a comprehensive and customisable solution tailored to the needs of each client. It provides the financial security of an insurance policy that covers legal expenses, settlement costs and tribunal awards arising from employment disputes.
Designed to significantly reduce exposure to unexpected financial loss, the scheme caps employment law and HR-related costs, giving businesses peace of mind.
Kathryn Evans, Head of Employment at Trethowans said: “Our Employment Law Protection Scheme is a simple, cost-effective way to relieve the burden of employment legislation on businesses.
“Since the abolition of employment tribunal fees, we have seen a steady rise in the number of employment tribunal claims. This trajectory will inevitably continue, perhaps sharply over the coming years, as a result of the significant increase in workers’ rights pursuant to the Employment Rights Bill.”
“The ongoing success of a business often hinges on instant access to quality legal support. This new service offers robust protection against claims that could otherwise cost employers thousands in unbudgeted legal fees.”
