Discrimination

If you have been discriminated against at work, you have a right to bring a claim in the Employment Tribunal for compensation.

Employers have a legal duty not to discriminate against you directly or indirectly.

However, many employees shy away from bringing a claim because they are unsure whether the behaviour they have been subjected to amounts to discrimination. Based in our Coventry city centre offices, our specialist, our Employment Law Solicitors, who are acknowledged as leaders in their field by the Legal 500, can swiftly and sensitively advise you if you have a valid discrimination claim under the Equality Act 2010.
