What you can expect
You’ll be assigned a Legal Coach from the Valla team who will do an expert legal review of your submitted documents. After your review you will have a 1 hour call with the coach to discuss the following:
- how likely your potential case is to succeed and what you could be awarded, based on the claims identified and the evidence that supports them
- suggestions for which claims to take forward to maximise your chances of success in the tribunal
- a discussion of settlement and what you might target as a settlement amount
- a strategy to increase the likelihood that your claims succeed
After your call, you can use this information to start filling out your ET1 and get your Tribunal claim started.
How it works
You’ll need to upload documents, such as a grievance letter, disciplinary letter, timeline of events, etc. These documents will serve as the foundation for your merits assessment. The more clarity and detail you provide, the more valuable and insightful your assessment will be.
- Submit Your Case: After submitting your case for review, the Valla team will promptly match you with a coach.
- Coach Introduction: Once you're matched, you'll receive an email introducing you to your coach.
- Case Review: Your coach will review your case, typically within 5 business days from your purchase.
- Merits Assessment Call: Once completed, your coach will reach out to you to schedule a Merits Assessment call.
- Claim Summary: After the call, you will receive a document summarizing the merits of your potential claim.

What our customers say about us
Valla are excellent
I genuinely believe they helped guide me to the best possible outcome for my specific circumstances. They are a choir of angels; I wouldn't have been able to consider going through the processes involved with my experience without their support.
Valla has been a lifesaver for me
They are so helpful and on top of that, everyone has been so nice. I really felt that they emphasised with what I was going through. I will be using them from now until my tribunal issue is settled.
If I didn’t get help from Valla, I couldn’t go forward with the case.
The confidence they gave me is beyond description.
Why use Valla?
A law firm can cost anywhere from an initial consultation fee of £200 to £35,000+ plus VAT for Tribunal representation.
Valla offers users low-cost alternatives to pricey law firms. We can help guide you through the process and generate legal documents for your use.
Lawyers can be expensive. But access to justice doesn’t have to be.
