Workplace disputes can be complex and deeply impactful, affecting your livelihood and professional reputation. The Workplace Relations Commission (WRC) in Ireland provides a forum for resolving employment disputes in a fair and impartial manner. At Court Assist, we are here to support individuals navigating WRC processes by offering professional administrative and drafting assistance.

WRC Representation
We also offer representation services for WRC hearings. Should you choose to hire us for WRC representation, we will manage your entire WRC application, help you prepare your case, and will speak on your behalf at the adjudication hearing.

Drafting Assistance
Our drafting assistance services aim to simplify the procedural aspects of your case, allowing you to focus on presenting your position effectively. 

Employment disputes brought before the WRC typically involve a wide range of issues, including:

Unfair Dismissal: Claims of unfair dismissal often require detailed submissions outlining the circumstances of the dismissal, timelines of events, and supporting evidence. We assist in drafting structured and persuasive statements to ensure your case is presented clearly.

Redundancy Disputes: Whether contesting the validity of a redundancy or seeking entitlements related to redundancy, we can help you organise the relevant documentation and correspondence for your claim.

Discrimination Claims: Allegations of workplace discrimination, based on grounds such as gender, age, race, or disability, often involve complex arguments and evidence. We help you prepare your submissions and ensure your documentation is properly formatted and organised.

Bullying and Harassment Complaints: Cases involving workplace bullying or harassment may require detailed statements, timelines of incidents, and corroborating evidence. Our service can assist you in compiling and presenting your materials in a professional and effective manner.

Breach of Employment Rights: Claims related to breaches of employment law, such as unpaid wages, working time violations, or breaches of contract, demand precise and clear submissions. We assist in drafting statements of claim and organising your supporting evidence.

Retaliation or Victimisation Claims: If you believe you have been retaliated against for exercising your employment rights, we can help prepare documentation that details your experiences and provides a coherent narrative of your case.

The WRC’s processes are designed to be accessible, but they require adherence to specific procedural rules. Applications, responses, and evidence submissions must meet the WRC's requirements to ensure your case is properly considered. At Court Assist, we specialise in helping self-representing individuals prepare these materials, from drafting written submissions to organising evidence into clear, logical bundles.

We understand that employment disputes can be stressful and overwhelming. Our goal is to reduce this burden by providing the practical support you need to present your case effectively. Whether you are initiating a claim or responding to one, we work with you to ensure your documentation reflects your position accurately and professionally.
