At Morton Fraser Lawyers we have highlighted clarity as our guiding principle.
This directs the way we communicate, the way we advise, the way we conduct relationships with our clients and the way we are totally transparent and upfront about our charges. This applies to all our services from the straightforward to the more complex.

A clear future together.
Very often it will be possible to negotiate the settlement of an employment dispute without your case going all the way to a full Employment Tribunal hearing. However, if that isn't possible we'll ensure that your claim is thoroughly prepared and presented at the Employment Tribunal as robustly as possible.

There are very strict time limits for raising an Employment Tribunal claim so advice must be taken without delay.
At the outset we'll provide clear advice on how likely you are to be successful and the amount of compensation that you're likely to be awarded. We'll also advise you on the costs that you'll incur so that you have a complete understanding of the economics of your claim.
We have represented employees and ex-employees at Employment Tribunals for many years, including in various high profile cases. We therefore have a clear insight into the approach that Employment Judges and Tribunal lay members will take. This puts us in a great position to advise you on how best to handle your claim.
We have more Law Society of Scotland accredited employment law specialists. The Team is rated by both Chambers and Legal 500 as one of the best in Scotland.
We understand the importance of providing fee clarity and value for money. We offer fixed fee packages for bringing Employment Tribunal claims. If it's not possible to provide a fixed fee then we'll provide a clear indication of the likely fee based on an agreed scope of work.
