Treated unfairly at work because of a disability, illness, or health condition? The law is here to protect you. Our specialist solicitors are experts in disability discrimination claims and will fight to secure the justice and compensation you deserve.
The law defines a disability as a 'physical or mental impairment' that has a 'substantial and long-term' negative effect on your ability to do normal daily activities. This is a broad definition and can include conditions like depression, anxiety, dyslexia, and long-term illnesses. We are experts in all forms of employment discrimination and can advise on your specific situation.
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.
Generally, you are not required to disclose a disability. However, for an employer to be under the duty to make reasonable adjustments, they must know (or ought reasonably to know) that you have a disability. We can provide strategic advice on how and when to disclose a condition to ensure you are protected.
This is any change to your role or workplace that removes a disadvantage caused by your disability. Examples include providing special equipment, allowing flexible working hours, changing your duties, or providing a phased return to work after sickness absence. What is 'reasonable' depends on the specific circumstances and the employer's resources.
It can be unlawful disability discrimination to dismiss you for sickness absence that is related to your disability. An employer must first make reasonable adjustments and follow a fair capability process. A dismissal in these circumstances could lead to a strong claim at an Employment Tribunal.
Unfair treatment because of your health is unlawful. Our expert discrimination solicitors are here to provide the confidential advice and robust representation you need.
