Legal aid to sue an employer? You cannot be serious. ;-)


Take a look at this:

Which does say that publicly-funded legal representation is not
available at an Employment Tribunal.


No, but it does cover help with preparation for a tribunal and for an
appeal.

And don't forget it all has to be paid back - many people imagine
legal aid is really aid - it isn't, it's a loan and you don't even get
that if you have savings or equity above £8000.

Most people aren't prepared to put everything on the line on the
offchance that our wonderful judicial system might come up with a just
result. I most certainly wouldn't.
