Are you facing some employment law issues? Do you need an employment solicitor who will help you in settling all your employment issues? Here are some of the most common mistakes people make when hiring an employment solicitor.
1. Believing “Years of Experience” is everything
Several law firms are known to boast of having years of experience in handling employment cases. However, most of these firms are only magnifying their credentials to get clients. It is also possible that the lawyers who were handling cases years back are no longer working with the company despite it being in existence for years.
2. Having a perception that bigger is better
Being bigger does not mean that they are better at handling employment cases. There are small or medium-sized law firms that are known to be successful in handling employment cases than most of the bigger firms. In fact, it is in smaller or medium-sized law firms where you will find solicitors who are committed to hearing and solving your case.
3. Failing to Ask for a Written Agreement about the Fee
Although you can have an oral contract, problems are bound to emerge at times. This explains why having written proof of terms is important. Ensure you have a written contract with your employment law solicitor in Bournemouth since it is the best way to assure that all parameters are covered.
4. Failing to Shop Around
Many people hire the first solicitor they meet. It is advisable that you book appointments with as many lawyers as possible. Most of the solicitors will offer you free consultations. Use that opportunity to help you know more about a solicitor and see if you can work together.
