I really like the way you speak in a simple language, this shows that you are not only a good lawyer but a likeable human being as well. Love from UK

[@terrygorry]

Thanks a lot 👍😀

[@gremsonvalua5609]

I really like the way you speak. clear enough to understand the procedures.

[@travelbusinesslifestylehub6337]

got appeals hearing tomorrow i was unfairly dismissed,duty manager investigated and was same person who dismissed me.Hr lady took notes.I appealed and now the same person taking notes is the one chairing the appeals meeting .

[@travelbusinesslifestylehub6337]

Thank you so much for sharing this great knowledge..wasnt sure how to go abt things

[@monikadunns9230]

Very informative because I was fired from my job November 2018. I had my barrister in court , after the case was finished the judge told us that we will get the judgement in 6 weeks. It is now exactly 5 months and nothing happened. We write to the court but was told they are still typing up the judgement. It is so frustrating and stressful because I just need to put a period to it and move on with my life because this is taking far too long. Taking a case to the tribunal is not just a walk in the park because it is extremely stressful but I was determined to go the long way because injustice is always a threat to justice and I cannot just fold my arms and been oppressed by an oppressor.

[@terrygorry]

Thanks for comment 👍

[@batmansuperman290]

I hope you got justice out of it.

[@monikadunns9230]

@@batmansuperman290 After a 2 years battle Finally get justice only 2 weeks ago. I was offer a settlement which I refused. I decided that I would like for the judge to determined what compensation I should have. It was definitely a real hit and miss but I was too determined, in the end it paid off because the court offer me 3 grand more than what the company was offering. Justice has finally prevailed.

[@narupanonngarmkham]

Thank you very much for your advice and explaining

[@KK2Twins]

My employer meet with me and my union in the morning then fired me without my union rep in the afternoon. My union president we will get back pay of 45k plus job back and feels like your video reflects that!! Thankyou

[@KK2Twins]

Do you agree? Thanks for your reply!!

[@terrygorry]

No, I don't.

[@KK2Twins]

@@terrygorry well they did that and didn't even send my union the file. But i pray we win your video gives me hope even though differnt sittuation

[@kendellbedenfieldjr9936]

I'm dealing with a bogus termination now. The sent me the paperwork when I left the country on vacation.

[@sandybrown5631]

"we will be connected until one of us passes away!"

[@kennydb2009]

I was terminated from federal government service after 15yr and the union was not notified during the process

[@Hubcitybg]

How long does the company have to pay you upon returning from being reinstated.

[@Dentheslav]

I stole a book from the lost and found had court for two years can you help me figure out if why i need to pay 525.80 for a lawyer who didn’t show up to my last court date? Case was dismissed and i had already brought back the book Book i “stole” was 4.99 Let me know Its also my first charge

[@Scottwillow1]

Very good video, I’m going through a nightmare situation at the moment of a wrongful accusation from 2 colleagues at work so I am suspended while an investigation is being carried out. Feel so down while this has been happening and hate to say had suicidal thoughts

[@terrygorry]

If its any consolation I was fired from the only job I had in about 30 years and it did me no harm at all. I even made a short video about it😄😉

[@Marvinflores]

Hello there. Sorry for your delema. In my opinion, employment is vital for survival, however, no employment is worth the dignity and mental health of any person. Just grief your loss and move on. I can confidently assure you, you will be fine. The power to move on and accept things will give you a better source of control. Why work for an employer who will not give you a fair chance? You as an employee are a valuable asset. If you ever feel suicidal again, remember, its just a phase and you will eventually feel better and be in a better place. God bless.

[@Scottwillow1]

I agree with you Marvin but I’ve contemplated suicide twice because of all this. I have seriously struggled and I’m in fear that if I lose my job then financially it will ruin me and so near to Christmas as well, it’s just so unfair that 2 supposed colleagues would want to ruin my life because of a vendetta.

[@Marvinflores]

@@Scottwillow1 humm.. I am begining to see, differences are common in the workplace. How will self harm help your situation? Listen, just quit and get another job. Take control over your situation. Forget Christmas. Do you need help with your resume? Let me help you. Your going to be fine. Here's me email. [e-mail]

[@benyoung8756]

Thankyou for the video. I found it very useful. I would like to know if an individual was dismissed then re-instated after an appeal, would there be an opportunity to claim for compensation for the experience caused despite receiving lost salary which is back paid?

[@terrygorry]

Not in Ireland. No compensation for hurt feelings in unfair dismissal cases.

[@richardnolan1013]

That would mean if involved in both meeting would be inclined to have made up their mind already on person involved in so called theft of wheel rims🤔

[@davidfrancisc6838]

Is fair that hearing to be based on same statement like in investigation eve if employee rise important facts that could lead to prove is not guilty ? In case of suspension how someone can prepare his defence if is not allowed on site or he don’t have access to documents on company hard drive ( rota, handbook ,emails,company policies , management rules, interview the witnesses) . Thank you.

[@terrygorry]

Can't comment on your case here, if you want advice you need to arrange a consultation.

[@davidfrancisc6838]

In the hearing was not give example of case similar or close similar facts in which was given the same decision , this could be proof of fairness .

[@terrygorry]

Not sure what you are saying but you should have considered getting representation if you are saying you brought a case yourself and lost. You might have had a better chance.

[@drmp4all430]

I Need your views on a case whether it can be moved in same way or not............please let me know the views.

[@terrygorry]

Yes, no problem. But you will need to organise a consultation and give me full details. You can learn more about the consultation here:employmentrightsireland.com/employment-rights-for-employees/

Hi My employer is refusing to pay my final wages. I quit my job due to the company being bullies and unprofessional. They sent me a payslip with tax and NI deductions and net pay but I’ve not received the money. I’ve contacted them which acknowledged they must of overlooked it but still no money 1 month later. ACAS are involved but I can’t find any info on this type of case. What chances do I have of getting my money?

[@terrygorry]

Where do you live? Work?

[@HolteEnder85]

I live in Staffordshire, uk. I’m currently unemployed as I left my role.
