Cross examination; how to be your own lawyer at UK Employment Tribunal

In this video, I will talk through how cross examination works in UK Employment Tribunal. If you are representing yourself you will have 2 roles in a tribunal, key witness and criss examiner. In this video I break down how to be a good witness for your own case under cross examination, how to effectively cross examine the other side and the rules and subtext around re-examination. I hope this video helps you asses your situation and work out if representing yourself at Tribunal is someting you're ready to explore.

👋 Heads up!

I am not a lawyer nor do I claim to be. This is advice based on my own experience representing myself in a gruelling 11 day trial with a cumulative 14 days in court and a full 2 years from case commencement to Remedy award. Read more about my case here: https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/gp...
