If you have been treated unfairly at work because of who you are, the law is on your side. Our specialist discrimination solicitors are here to provide robust legal advice, protect your rights, and help you claim the compensation you deserve.
The Equality Act 2010 protects you from being treated unfairly because of certain 'protected characteristics'. Our expertise covers claims relating to all of these, including:
The law is complex and covers many situations. If you feel you've been treated unfairly but don't see your exact issue listed, please contact us. Your experience may still be unlawful.
We help you gather the crucial evidence needed to build a strong discrimination claim, from emails and messages to witness statements.
Many discrimination claims are resolved via a settlement agreement. We are expert negotiators focused on securing maximum compensation for you.
If a settlement isn't possible, our tenacious solicitors will provide robust representation for you at the Employment Tribunal.
Evidence can be direct (e.g., offensive emails or messages) or circumstantial. Often, a tribunal will look at patterns of behaviour, how others were treated in similar situations, and whether the employer's explanation for their actions is believable. Keeping a detailed diary of incidents is extremely helpful. We can help you identify what is needed.
Direct discrimination is being treated less favourably *because of* a protected characteristic (e.g., not being hired because you are a woman). Indirect discrimination is when a company has a policy that applies to everyone but puts you at a particular disadvantage because of your characteristic (e.g., a rule that all staff must work Saturdays, which disadvantages those of a certain religion).
There is no cap on compensation for discrimination. The amount awarded depends on the financial losses you have suffered (like lost wages) and an award for 'injury to feelings', which reflects the hurt and distress caused by the discrimination. We can provide an assessment of your potential claim value based on your specific case.
Unfair treatment at work is unlawful. Our expert discrimination solicitors are here to provide the confidential advice and robust representation you need.
