I need some formal legal counsel. I am potentially going head to head with my boss and need some cheap advice. I'm not eligible for legal aid but can't afford lawyers' fees of £200 an hour.

The CAB are a good place to start if it's a straightforward dispute, but bear in mind that free advice is worth exactly that - nothing. There are no cheap specialists in anything , especially employment law. You get what you pay for. There are however, solictors who give good value. They will not charge £200 ph and will agree all fees in advance and will check with you before incurring any fees and can agree fixed rates. The truth is that in the event of a big dispute, having a solictors firm behind you gives you clout. It may work out less expensive in the long run.
