Frequently asked questions
Will my employer find out I contacted you?
No. Everything you do on Valla is private. Your employer won’t be notified, and we never share your details without your permission.
Is everything I tell you confidential?
Yes. We treat your information with the highest confidentiality. Our platform is secure and fully GDPR-compliant.
Can this come back to hurt me at work?
Using Valla is completely private and doesn’t create any official record. You can explore your rights safely without triggering any action.
Are your solicitors actually qualified?
Yes. Our assessments and templates are written and reviewed by qualified UK employment lawyers and legal specialists.
What if I disagree with your assessment?
That’s OK, our assessment is designed to guide, not pressure. If something doesn’t feel right, you can speak to a coach or request clarification.
How do I know you’re not just trying to sell me services?
We’re here to empower people, not upsell. You’ll find free resources and transparent pricing throughout the site. Our focus is on giving you control.
Is there a deadline for workplace claims?
Yes, many claims, like unfair dismissal or discrimination, must be made within 3 months minus 1 day from when the problem happened. It’s important to act quickly.
What if I’ve already left my job?
You can still take legal action even after leaving a job. What matters is when the issue happened and whether it’s still within the legal deadline.
Should I talk to my employer first?
That depends. Sometimes it helps to speak to them, but you don’t have to. We can help you decide what’s best in your situation.
What’s included in the platform?
You get access to legal document templates, step-by-step guides, case tracking tools, and expert support to help you take action—without needing a lawyer.
Do I need the platform if I just want the assessment?
No. The £149 assessment is a standalone product. You only need the platform if you want to take further steps based on that advice.
What’s free and what costs money?
Free: resources, guides, some templates, and case tracking tools.
Paid: the case assessment (£149), coaching sessions, and advanced templates. Everything is clearly priced—no hidden fees.
Do I need to pay £149 to use the platform?
No. You can explore the platform and access many free tools without paying. The £149 assessment is only needed if you want a legal opinion on your case.
What’s the difference between the assessment and the platform?
The assessment gives you personalised legal advice on your situation. The platform helps you act on that advice, offering tools, templates, and coaching.
Should I get the assessment first or explore the platform?
If you’re unsure whether you have a case, start with the £149 assessment. If you already know your issue and want to take action, you can explore the platform straight away.
I’m not sure what I need – where do I begin?
Start by browsing our guides or using the “Do I have a case?” tool. You’ll get clear next steps based on your answers.
Can I use the platform without getting an assessment?
Yes. You can use our templates, trackers, and guidance with or without the assessment.
What can I actually do with the platform?
You can draft legal documents, prepare your case, track deadlines, and access step-by-step guidance—all in one place.
Do I need legal knowledge to use your tools?
No legal background needed. Everything is written in plain English, with guided steps designed for non-lawyers.
Do you provide lawyers for tribunal representation?
We don’t offer full legal representation, but we do provide expert coaching, document help, and support to help you represent yourself.
How much ongoing support do I get?
You can book coaching sessions and access help as you go. The amount of support depends on the tools or services you choose.
What happens after I get my assessment?
You’ll receive a written legal opinion with clear next steps. You can then use the platform to take action or book extra support if needed.
How is this different from just seeing a solicitor?
Valla gives you expert guidance at a much lower cost. We offer the tools and templates you need to act on your own, saving money on legal fees.
Why not just go to ACAS or Citizens Advice?
Those services are helpful, but Valla offers more detailed legal advice and step-by-step support tailored to your case, especially if you're heading toward a tribunal.
Is this better than hiring my own lawyer?
It depends. If you want affordable legal help and are happy managing your case with support, Valla can save you thousands. For full representation, a lawyer may be more suitable.
What types of workplace issues can you help with?
We support issues like discrimination, bullying, unfair dismissal, unpaid wages, whistleblowing, and more.
Do you handle all employment law areas?
We cover most employee rights issues, especially those that could lead to a tribunal claim. If something’s outside our scope, we’ll tell you upfront.
What if my case is really complicated?
That’s okay. Start with the assessment—our experts will tell you if your case needs specialist help beyond what Valla offers.
Are you regulated like other law firms?
Valla is not a law firm, but our legal assessments are carried out by qualified law professionals. We work to professional legal standards and are transparent about how we operate.
Who actually reviews my case?
Qualified UK employment lawyers and legal experts review your case if you book the assessment.
How do I know your advice is reliable?
Our legal assessments are backed by experienced professionals, and everything we recommend is rooted in UK employment law.
