Foreign Worker Whistleblower
A USA citizen employed by a UK Company contacted Philip Landau (then with Landau Zeffertt & Weir) for advice regarding filing a workplace grievance. Landau illegally bypassed UK legally required grievance procedures as well as legally required reporting of foreign workers and recommended an illegal settlement contract to illegally terminate a whistleblower.
Conspiracy to Defraud
Philip Landau and his associate Holly Rushton (now Hobson) conspired with Employer counsel Rhodri Thomas with Watson Farley & Williams to force the illegal settlement. The Employer company secretary, Carl Richards and associate Ben Kelly, both lawyers for the UK Company also cooperated in this fraud against a foreign worker that bypassed mandated legal grievance procedures. The lawyers conspired to protect corrupt Company executives and engaged in illegal whistleblower retaliation.
Violent Retaliation and Extortion
The grievance reported (with evidence) illegal harassment and discrimination. Landau and Hobson compromised their client and his family’s health and safety. Landau and Hobson, Richards and Kelly along with Watson Farley & Williams disregarded both the grievance as well as recommendations of the UK Company contracted Occupational Health Nurse. They all conspired to ignore the grievance and instead force an illegal settlement to be signed to avoid UK Employment Tribunal and large damages and criminal prosecution.
