How do I prepare my case for a final hearing in the employment tribunal?

The court or tribunal will issue case management orders to assist in the preparation of your case for hearing. These will either be issued upon receipt of the claim or made thereafter during a preliminary or case management hearing. Such orders cover matters such as:

• A list of issues
• Disclosure of documents
• A joint agreed bundle
• Exchange of witness statements
• Expert evidence
• Chronology and case list.

Such orders must be complied with unless you have permission from the court to vary them.

You may use the services of a barrister for any or all of the above.
