Recovery of Non Payment of Redundancy
This review is for a different branch.
Had an initial legal interview with Loch Law Tunbridge Wells this seemingly went quite well
We were promised that Loch Law could sort my problem and that there would be a full and final settlement
At the initial meeting we provided a contact of my ex-employer as we thought that would be a good starting point
We were told that this case of Non Payment of Redundancy would be looked into
Loch Law applied for a DSAR from my ex-employer this was in order so that Loch Law would be able to to see any facts and figures of my ex employment
Loch Law got the DSAR, this was only because my ex - employer sent the DSAR documents to my home address but this should of gone to Loch Law as it was Loch Law that originally made the application for this DSAR
On the day of the initial interview it was agreed that a group meeting would be arranged so that both Loch Law and ourselves could go through this DSAR together and find any untrue facts and figures and to correct any incorrect facts
We found out that Loch Law had eventually received the DSAR and we so expected to be called for a general group meeting with our case solicitor
This never ever happened, it was just the case solicitors that reviewed the DSAR and made a full and final decisive that it was not worth continuing with this case, we were never ever be allowed to be involved in our case there was no real communication as to the progression of this case we had to continually keep telephoning for which we were charged for
We tried to inform Loch Law that within this DSAR there was untruths/fabricated facts/ untrue information, we were excluded from the group meeting at Loch Law Tunbridge Wells the final decision of this case was entirely made by the case solicitors we were never ever included in the case
We tried to offer paper documentation to prove that this DSAR contained untrue facts and figures and fabricated facts
but Loch Law had no intention whatsoever of caling us for a group meeting to sort out the untruth from the real true facts
We felt that Loch Law was more on the side of my ex employer and that whatever my ex employer had said in this DSAR was the gospel truth as far as Loch Law were concerned
We felt that we were excluded from this DSAR meeting because Loch Law wanted to make it good just for themselves and Loch Law wanted to believe 100% that what the DSAR said was the full and accurate truth to which this is so untrue there was continuous untruths/fabricated facts right through this DSAR yet LOCH LAW would NOT allow us to put our case forward with the paper documentation that we had which told the full and TRUE facts of my employment
We had to explain to Loch Law the conditions that an employer had to do before making any person employee redundant but it would seem like our comments and explanations just fell on deaf ears
Had we had a group meeting and we had been allowed to produce our documentation I think that this incident would of never ever happened
We came away from Loch Law feeling that we had not been well served
All the facts that had been discussed at this initial meeting and the plan of action to go forward with this case was just proverbially thrown out, there was absolutely no client - lawyer case comunication and meetings as we thought that there should of been
