Disability discrimination covers situations where an employer, service provider or public authority treats someone less favourably because of a disability, or fails to make reasonable adjustments to remove barriers. It also includes discrimination arising from a disability and certain actions linked to healthcare or social care access. A solicitor in this area helps clients assess whether a protected characteristic is involved under the Equality Act 2010, drafts or negotiates settlement terms, and represents or advises at tribunal or court on claims in employment, goods and services, or public authority contexts.
A regulated solicitor provides protection through professional duties, including professional indemnity insurance, regulatory accountability and conduct of litigation. They review whether the respondent's policy or practice constitutes unlawful discrimination, prepare pleadings or statements of case, gather medical or expert evidence, and negotiate settlements or settlements via mediation, while ensuring compliance with tribunal procedures and protecting the client's rights under the Equality Act 2010.
