Expert Legal Advice on Discrimination, Bullying and Harassment for Employees

Discrimination can often manifest itself in subtle ways and as a result, cases of discrimination can be complex.

 If you believe that you are a victim of discrimination, bullying or harassment, you should obtain specialist legal advice as soon as possible.

 Under current discrimination laws, it is unlawful to discriminate on the following grounds:

• Age
• Disability
• Gender reassignment
• Marriage or civil partnership
• Pregnancy and maternity
• Race
• Religion or belief
• Sexual orientation

Harassment or bullying in relation to any of the above is also unlawful.

We have acted for a significant number of individuals on workplace discrimination issues. We can advise you on:

• Raising your complaints (both formally and informally) in the appropriate way
• Guidance throughout the grievance process, including drafting and/or reviewing relevant documentation
• Issuing a claim in the Employment Tribunal
• Settlement terms or, if need be, representation at a hearing

It is not uncommon for discrimination claims to overlap with other areas such as unfair dismissal. Getting clarity on your legal rights is important to us.
