Any advice for surviving an employment tribunal

Overwhelmed1

Hi I wondered if anyone had any ideas for how to get through a really stressful employment tribunal claim for unfair dismissal and disability discrimination. I had been off sick for a few weeks following major surgery and complications when with no warning or anything I got a call terminating my employment.

My legal team have said I have a strong case but it’s taking its toll on my and my husband’s mental health.

I’ve never been through anything like this before. My employment termination happened in 2024 but due to the state of the legal system my case may not be heard until 2027 or later- has anyone had any experience of how they have coped they’d be willing to share or does anyone know of any support forums for this.

Many thanks

Hi @Overwhelmed1

I don't have much knowledge on this topic unfortunately but potentially, some of our members may have been through it and can offer further information and support.

There is challenging disability discrimination at work and information about employment tribunals that I found which I hope will be helpful
