We’re helping ex Dorothy Perkins employees who have been affected by the closure of all Dorothy Perkins stores across the country.

Following the collapse of Arcadia Group after it fell into administration last year, on the 8th February 2021, it was announced that Boohoo had purchased the brands Dorothy Perkins, Burton and Wallis. This has resulted in the devastating loss of 2,450 jobs due to the closure of 214 stores across the 3 brands.

If you’re facing redundancy from Dorothy Perkins, our redundancy solicitors be able to help you.

When an employer proposes to make more than 20 employees redundant at one location, they have a legal obligation to consult with either a recognised trade union or elected employee representatives. If an employer does not comply with this obligation, you may be entitled to claim compensation by bringing a claim for a protective award to the Employment Tribunal.

We would like to support former employees of Dorothy Perkins with bringing a claim for a protective award, where the Tribunal is able to award up to 90 days’ pay capped at £538 to each individual who is part of the claim.
