How Employment Law Solicitors can easily avoid Professional Negligence claims

As a claimant Employment Law Solicitor, you will often be providing advice upon the merits of employee claims, you’ll perhaps be sitting-in on internal grievance processes, or sometimes representing clients during tribunal cases.

But what do you do when your client has been signed-off from work by their GP due to a Stress-related illness?

You may not already know, but this common occurrence establishes an additional & separate Psychiatric Injury, and these claims will generally settle for significant sums, often for over £100K.

However, when these claims are not pursued, it leaves Employment Law Solicitors open to professional negligence for undervaluing the case – which is disastrous for any law firm.

This is where our dedicated Psychiatric Injury Team can help you out. The team of twelve is headed by director, Jessica Rowson, who has appeared on the BBC several times to discuss this niche area of law.

By contacting Oakwood Solicitors to refer the separate stress claim, it would leave you to focus upon the initial employment issue, whilst being secure in the knowledge that your client is in the hands of experts.
