Allegations & Complaints

Specialist Employment Lawyers for Workplace Allegations

At Hart Brown, our experienced team of workplace dispute solicitors understand that issues can arise at any stage of employment – from recruitment and training opportunities to pay, promotion and even dismissal. Whether your concerns involve discrimination, unfair treatment, disciplinary action or other workplace disputes, we can provide specialist legal support tailored to your situation.

Addressing Allegations and Complaints at Work

If you have experienced unfair treatment at work due to discrimination, harassment, or bullying, you may have legal grounds to raise a grievance or claim. While we handle a number of workplace discrimination cases, our expertise also extends to a wide range of employment concerns, such as:

  • Unfair dismissal or wrongful termination
  • Constructive dismissal 
  • Disciplinary actions and hearings
  • Breaches of employment contracts
  • Pay disputes and unequal pay claims
  • Harassment or bullying at work
  • Discrimination

Discrimination Claims

If you have been treated less favourably by your employer or put at a disadvantage because you have a protected characteristic, you may have a discrimination claim. Under the Equality Act 2010, protected characteristics include, but are not limited to:

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

Starting your claim

The first step in any workplace allegation is to speak with a solicitor who can assess your situation. You should provide key details of dates, events and any previous attempts to resolve the matter. Our employment lawyers will help determine the most effective strategy, whether that involves negotiating with your employer or raising a formal grievance.

In cases where an internal resolution isn’t possible, our solicitors are experienced in taking disputes to an Employment Tribunal. We can prepare your claim, gather supporting evidence, negotiate settlement agreements and represent you at hearings and appeals.

To speak with an experienced workplace grievance solicitor about discrimination, unfair treatment or any other employment issue, please email info@hartbrown.co.uk, call 01483 887766 or start a live chat today.

What do Louisa's clients say?

"I will be eternally grateful for you getting this over the line, fighting my corner and getting the incredible result you did. It was an immense relief to be able to let go and trust the process, safe in the knowledge that you had my back in this matter and at last to feel supported. But more than all the knowledge and skill involved, I recognise and am so appreciative of the fact that the outcome may well not have been the same had you not been quite so understanding and respectful of the complexities involved - personally, emotionally and professionally..."

"I'm grateful for your efforts and expertise in getting this resolved in good time and for all the helpful updates along the way; I would not hesitate to work with Hart Brown in the future."
