Counsel for the workplace

Three principal areas of expertise — and dedicated advocacy where it matters most.

All protected characteristics
— II —

Whistleblowing

Helping clients understand their rights, prepare disclosures, navigate the whistleblowing process, and stay protected from retaliation at every stage.

Protected disclosures
— III —

Other Employment Claims

Unfair, constructive and wrongful dismissal; redundancy; equal pay; contract reviews; harassment, victimisation and disciplinary disputes.

The Record

Nearly two decades of decisive outcomes.

Equal Justice has built a reputation few firms can match — recovering more than £32 million for claimants and winning four of the five highest discrimination awards in the United Kingdom. With only one case lost in almost twenty years, our record speaks with quiet authority.
