Disciplinary and Grievance Advice

Disciplinary and Grievance Advice for Employees in Cheltenham and Gloucestershire

If you’re facing a disciplinary hearing or need to raise a formal grievance at work, getting the right legal advice early can make all the difference. At Pembridge Solicitors, we provide clear, confidential advice to employees across Cheltenham and Gloucestershire who are navigating difficult workplace situations.

We help protect your rights, guide you through internal procedures, and support you in responding effectively — whether you’re defending allegations or raising concerns.

Facing Disciplinary Action?

If your employer has accused you of misconduct, poor performance, or breach of company policy, they may begin a disciplinary process. This can result in formal warnings, demotion, or even dismissal. We can help you:

  • Understand the allegations and your legal rights
  • Review your employer’s disciplinary procedure
  • Prepare for disciplinary meetings
  • Respond to allegations in writing or in person
  • Appeal any decision made against you

Where appropriate, we’ll also advise you on negotiating a settlement or bringing a claim for unfair dismissal if procedures haven’t been followed correctly.

Raising a Workplace Grievance

If you’re being treated unfairly at work — such as bullying, discrimination, or breach of your contract — you have the right to raise a formal grievance.
We can assist you with:
  • Drafting a grievance letter that clearly sets out your concerns
  • Understanding your employer’s grievance process
  • Preparing for grievance meetings or mediation
  • Responding to a grievance outcome
  • Taking further legal action if your concerns are not resolved

We’ll guide you through the process while protecting your employment rights and helping you avoid unnecessary conflict.

Early Legal Advice Makes a Difference

Workplace disputes are often time-sensitive, and how you respond at the early stages can affect your outcome later. Whether you’re facing potential dismissal or considering leaving your job, we’ll help you make informed decisions from day one.
