Equal Justice Solicitors exists to make affordable, quality representation a reality for people facing discrimination, whistleblowing reprisals and unfair dismissal — taking on employers others won't, and winning. In nearly two decades of practice, the firm has lost only one case.
Speak with a specialist employment solicitor about your situation — in confidence, with no obligation.
Three core fields of employment law — and full advocacy at tribunal — handled by specialists who do nothing else.
Expert representation across every protected characteristic — age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage & civil partnership, pregnancy & maternity, race, religion or belief, sex, and sexual orientation.
Helping clients understand their rights, prepare protected disclosures, navigate the whistleblowing process, and stay shielded from retaliation at every stage.
Unfair, constructive and wrongful dismissal; redundancy; equal pay; contract reviews; and harassment, victimisation and disciplinary disputes.
Advocacy where it counts. Representation at the Employment Tribunal and the Employment Appeal Tribunal — your case argued by the specialists who prepared it.
For two decades, the national press has covered the firm's work — and its founder — as a matter of public record.

Equal Justice Solicitors does not measure success in press cuttings — it measures it in outcomes for the people who walked through the door with nowhere else to turn.
