Do I have any legal standing (scottish employment law)?
Find answers to your legal question.

I was taken on a hotel manager. I employed 2 chefs who then took on the lease of the hotel. I was contracted with original owner and contract said he needed to give me 2 weeks notice if he was ending my employment. He gave me 5 days notice. Chefs wanted me to stay and work for them, we verbally agreed new pay rate and conditions.
The day before they were due take over officially I had an argument with one of the chefs, I might add that this was in a social situation as we were not at work at the time.
The next day I went in to see him and tried to make right our relationship where he refused and said I was no longer required. Do I have any recourse with either my original employer or the new ones.
Additional Details
I was only at the hotel for 4 months

No recourse with the chefs.
How long were you employed at the hotel?
