Practice Areas
I am the head of the Employment and Professional Discipline team in London. My practice covers all areas of employment law, discrimination law and professional discipline. I am a recognised leader in representing executives and professionals in both contentious and non-contentious work.
I have also developed a good reputation in pursuing successful discrimination and whistleblowing cases against large corporations and public bodies.
I have extensive experience of advising on regulatory issues including cases before the Financial Conduct Authority and the General Medical Council, and have a portfolio of key employer clients ranging from national charities, local authorities and companies.
I am also an accredited mediator. I am a former Board Member of the Discrimination Law Association and the Muslim Council of Britain’s Legal Affairs Committee. I am an active member of the Employment Lawyer’s Association. Additionally, I am the author of the Equal Opportunities chapter of Tolley’s Employment and Personnel Procedures and a former visiting lecturer at London Metropolitan University.
I have spoken at conferences held by the Law Society, Employment Lawyers’ Association, National Council for Voluntary Organisations and the Discrimination Law Association. I have also been interviewed and quoted in the press including the Guardian, the Times, the Telegraph and the Independent. He has appeared on BBC Newsnight, BBC News, Channel 4 and Radio 5 Live to provide legal comment.
In 2022, I won the 'Achievements in Law' award at the British Muslim Awards.
