Lawrence Davies

Equal Justice Solicitors is a specialist employment law firm led by its chief executive and founder, Lawrence Davies, and has been named Employment Litigation Law Firm of the Year in England at the Corporate INTL Global Awards 2025. The firm has built its reputation on employment litigation, with particular strength in discrimination and whistleblowing claims, and positions itself as an award-winning practice committed to affordable, high-quality representation for employees.

A solicitor and former City lawyer, Lawrence Davies founded Equal Justice with a mission to make robust employment representation accessible to claimants challenging injustice at work. He is described as the only UK legal professional to have won two of the country's top ten advocacy awards, and among his recognitions is the Howard Shaw whistleblower award. Under his leadership the firm has handled thousands of claims and recovered substantial sums for its clients, including multi-million-pound settlements in significant discrimination matters.

The firm's practice centres on employment litigation before the employment tribunals and courts, covering discrimination on grounds such as sex, race, disability, age and other protected characteristics, as well as whistleblowing and detriment claims, unfair dismissal and related workplace disputes. Equal Justice acts predominantly for individuals, and its model is built around offering affordable, quality representation and advice, giving claimants the means to pursue complex and often hard-fought cases against well-resourced employers.

Employment litigation of this kind demands both technical command of a fast-evolving area of law and genuine tenacity in contentious proceedings. Discrimination and whistleblowing cases frequently turn on detailed factual investigation, careful handling of sensitive evidence and skilled advocacy, and they can carry considerable significance for the individuals involved. The firm's track record across a large volume of claims, including high-profile whistleblowing and discrimination matters, reflects a depth of experience in taking such cases through to resolution and, where necessary, to hearing.

Equal Justice's client focus is firmly on empowering employees who might otherwise struggle to access effective legal support, combining specialist expertise with an emphasis on reasonable cost. This orientation towards accessibility, coupled with a strong record of settlements and awards, has helped establish the firm as a recognised name in claimant-side employment work. The Corporate INTL Global Awards 2025 recognition as Employment Litigation Law Firm of the Year in England affirms the standing of Equal Justice Solicitors and Lawrence Davies in the field of employment and discrimination litigation.
