Employment Litigation

At TheJudge, we have successfully brokered risk transfer terms for a high volume of disputes between employers and employees, including restrictive covenant disputes, breach of contract claims, unfair/wrongful/constructive dismissal claims, Sex/Race/Disability Discrimination, equal pay claims, stress at work and claims under the Protection from Harassment Act 1997, to name but a few.

After the Event insurance tends to only be suitable for employment cases which are not heard in the Employment Tribunal, as costs rarely follow the event. Accordingly, we are generally only instructed to secure litigation insurance terms for employment disputes being litigated in the civil courts.

It is highly likely that if we are able to secure offers of ATE insurance and/or Third Party Funding for your employment dispute, the terms will be on the basis of deferred and conditional upon success payments, meaning that neither insurers nor funders earn a penny if the case is unsuccessful. With ATE insurance, if the case succeeds, the premium ought to form a recoverable part of costs (where the case is litigated in the courts of England & Wales).
