Um so where these solicitors a specialist in employment law?

Unfortunately a lot of people in the uk take advice on employment from the same solicitor's who did their house legal work and come badly unstuck.

The Q is can could you afford to defend a claim on your IP - you wont get legal Aid

"Unfortunately a lot of people in the uk take advice on employment from the same solicitor's who did their house legal work and come badly unstuck."

In that case you would have a serious professional negligence claim against the law firm and possibly the solicitor who gave you the advice.
