If you have been dismissed, the clock matters more than almost anything else.

At the moment you have three months less one day to bring most employment tribunal claims. From 1 October 2026 that doubles to six months, but only where the dismissal happens on or after that date. Anyone dismissed in September keeps the old, shorter deadline.

Breach of contract claims in Scotland change separately, on 9 November 2026, which means two different deadlines can apply to the same dismissal this autumn.

Our new guide explains how the deadline is calculated, how ACAS conciliation pauses it, and what your options are if you think you are already out of time.

Been offered a settlement agreement? Here is something many people do not realise: the agreement is not legally binding unless you have taken independent legal advice, and your employer will normally pay for that advice. There is genuinely no reason to sign without it. Our new guide explains what you are agreeing to and what is usually negotiable.

Planning to remortgage this year? Here is our number one tip: start early. Most lenders let you lock in a new rate up to six months before your current deal ends. Instructing your solicitor in good time means the legal work runs smoothly in the background, and you avoid slipping onto your lender’s standard variable rate, which is usually far more expensive.
