Overview:
Workplace issues can affect your income, wellbeing and plans after university. Students and graduates may also be balancing employment with studies, visa conditions or the beginning of their professional careers.

Campus & Legal gives clear advice on workplace rights, contracts, evidence and internal procedures. We help you understand what has happened, what your employer is required to do and what options may be available before you decide how to respond.

Support can include:

• Unpaid wages and holiday pay

• Working conditions and contractual rights

• Dismissal and termination of employment

• Disciplinary proceedings

• Grievances and workplace complaints

• Discrimination and harassment at work

• Employment contracts and contractual disputes

• Changes to hours, duties or working arrangements

• Settlement discussions and settlement agreements

• Employment Tribunal issues

• Workplace investigations

• Evidence and correspondence with employers

You may not know whether what happened at work was lawful or whether formal action is appropriate. We can help you understand your position, assess the evidence and decide what to do next.

Our Approach

We start by understanding what has happened, reviewing employment contracts, workplace evidence and internal procedures and identifying the key issues. We then explain your position clearly and help you decide what action makes sense.

Our advice is practical and focused on what can actually be done next.

How It Works

1. Tell Us What Happened Send us a short explanation of the problem and any relevant documents.

2. We Review Your Case We assess the facts, evidence, relevant rules and any important deadlines.

3. Understand Your Options We explain where you stand and the different routes available to you.

4. Decide What Happens Next Depending on the issue, we can help with grievances, workplace responses and Tribunal issues or other formal action.

Clear Fees

We believe students should understand the likely cost before deciding how to proceed.

Where possible, we offer fixed-fee services for defined pieces of work such as document reviews, written advice, appeals, complaints and drafting.

The scope and fee will be agreed before work begins.

No Win, No Fee

Some cases may be suitable for a no win, no fee arrangement.

This may be available for eligible claims where there is a potential financial recovery, subject to an assessment of the merits, evidence, value and risks of the case.

Not every matter will qualify, but we will explain the available funding options clearly before you decide whether to proceed.

What We Review

Depending on the issue, this may include:

• Relevant correspondence

• Contracts or agreements

• University or workplace policies

• Decisions and outcome letters

• Evidence submitted by either side

• Photographs, screenshots or records

• Important dates and deadlines

• Previous complaints, appeals or responses

We focus on the documents that actually matter to the issue.

Practical Advice

Legal problems are rarely just about what the law says.

We also consider timing, cost, evidence, the outcome you want and the practical consequences of taking action.

The aim is to give you enough information to make an informed decision.

Support at Different Stages

You do not need to instruct us for the entire matter.

We can help with a specific stage, such as reviewing a decision, advising on your options, drafting a response or preparing a formal submission.

Where appropriate, we can also provide more ongoing support.

Early Advice Matters

Some disputes have strict grievance and Tribunal deadlines.

Getting advice early can make it easier to preserve evidence, understand the relevant procedure and avoid missing an important opportunity to act.

A Joined-Up Approach

Student problems do not always fit neatly into one area of law.

A workplace issue may involve contractual, equality or immigration rights. Where issues overlap, Campus & Legal considers the wider picture rather than looking at each problem in isolation.

Outcome Focused

Our focus is not simply on identifying legal issues.

We look at what you are trying to achieve and the most practical route towards that outcome, whether that involves resolving the issue informally, challenging a decision, negotiating or considering formal proceedings.
