We have particular expertise in advising and representing individuals experiencing disability discrimination as a result of long-term illnesses such as MS and cancer, and their carers. We have close links with charities providing support to those with cancer and hospices providing care for the terminally ill. We have also advised vulnerable employees who are being discriminated against due to mental health illnesses.
Discrimination claims are complex and you should try to obtain legal advice as early as possible; if you are unsure as to whether you are experiencing discrimination or need clarity on the remedies available to you, you can contact our Employment Team for a free initial consultation to discuss your matter. We can advise you on the possible avenues open to you to address the discrimination and help you manage a Tribunal claim if it becomes necessary.
