Sarah Johnson, instructed by Thompsons Solicitors, successfully represented the Claimant in a disability discrimination claim. The Claimant had brought the claim against her employer after they withdrew an offer of employment due to her Hemiplegia diagnosis.

Hemiplegia is a weakness or slight paralysis appearing on one side of the body.

Following a 3-day hearing, the Tribunal agreed the Respondent had discriminated against Claimant because of something arising from her disability.
