Experiencing a workplace issue? 😟
You don’t have to be the trouble-maker to be heard. It’s your right to be treated fairly and with respect.
If you want someone in your corner to guide and support you, I’ll fight your corner. ✊

Are you actually getting the hours, pay and holidays your contract guarantees?
My client was given short hours despite no short-time working clause, and struggled to cover basic costs. 👀
I stepped in. She was promised backdated pay. ✅
Sound familiar? You know where to come.
Completing an ET1 can feel overwhelming.
In this video, I explain how to properly structure your claim and why clearly identifying the legal basis of your claim is important.
If you need help setting it out clearly from the start, get in touch 🤝

Me: “How did the meeting go?”
Client: “I think it was ok… but she said I changed my statement.”
She had simply added more explanation.✅
Facing a disciplinary? Know your rights, check the procedure, and gather your evidence.💪
#DisciplinarySupport #KnowYourRights
Thinking of resigning during a disciplinary? Don’t rush!
A dismissal can override your resignation and still affect references 📄
Being told “resign or be dismissed” is predetermined and breaches the ACAS Code ❌
Always appeal unfair decisions!

I grew up believing that if you keep your head down at work, you’ll be safe. Not always true!
A client recently signed a statement they believed was wrong because they were afraid to argue. When another small mistake happened, their employer dismissed them.
I fight your corner!

Why we whistleblew & never gave up
@JusteanWinter
1 Nurse (Plymouth)
1 Midwife (Wales)
Never worked together
Both raised patient concerns
Both witnessed harm
Both whistleblowers
Both referred to NMC
Both ignored, threatened
Both raised grievances
Both went down tribunal route
Both were let down
Still standing
Still exposing the corruption
We weren’t the problem.
We were the warning.

Employment law violations are more common than you think in the UK ⚖️
1. Unpaid wages
2. Zero-hour contract misuse
3. Unfair redundancy
4. AI & workplace monitoring concerns
Knowing your rights is the first step to protecting them.

The damage is done.
When you terminate an employee due to performance issues, office politics, or force them to resign by creating a toxic environment — remember this:
They will move on.
In a few months, they’ll find better opportunities, rebuild their confidence, and thrive elsewhere.
But they’ll never forget how you treated them —
How you shouted, humiliated, and misunderstood them, simply because your ego got in the way of basic empathy.
They might never speak about it.
But they’ll carry the scars — silently.
Power should never come at the cost of someone’s dignity.

An ambulance trust was wrong to sack a worker after her wife attempted to kill their manager over an argument about shifts, a tribunal has found.

🚩When things go wrong at work, frontline employees are often made the scapegoat so employers can show “action” and protect themselves. The cost to employees can be huge - damaged careers, mental health, and future prospects. Don’t assume being a good employee guarantees support!
