Pollock & Galbraith assist Solicitors in determining the equitable assessment of pension loss in employment matters.  This might be associated with an employment tribunal or when giving assistance in the framing of compromise agreements.

Where possible, Pollock & Galbraith attempt to base calculations around the TSO Booklet Compensation for Loss of Pension Rights - Employment Tribunals.

Routinely, both Simplified and Substantial Loss Assessments are produced enabling the Tribunal to have all the information it requires to make an appropriate decision.

Cases involving non-standard schemes, early payment of benefits, age discrimination or “Beckmann” situations are more complex but our experience has been that our reports are invariably used as a basis for settlement without other experts necessarily becoming involved.

Assistance can also be given with other losses, share related benefits, benefits in kind, death and ill health benefits etc.
