Written by Naomi Cunningham and Michael Reed
Our former employment caseworker, Naomi Cunningham, has written Employment Tribunal Claims: Tactics and Precendents, published by Legal Action Group, with Michael Reed, our current Legal Officer, Employment.
Naomi, now at Outer Temple Chambers, built the book around the file of precedents she wrote for volunteers - now expanded to include detailed commentary and a wealth of practical experience.
The Hon Mrs Justice Cox DBE, in her foreword to this book, describes it as offering '...sensible and realistic guidance on every conceivable aspect of employment litigation.'
The authors have made a gift of their right to royalties to the Free Representation Unit (FRU) and we are delighted to receive 10% of the proceeds of each book. The book has been updated by Naomi and Michael and the new edition is available for purchase from the Legal Action Group web-site.
