I have done everything within my capacity to breach a termination settlement contract.
However, there is a coalition of corrupt lawyers and human resources personnel (English and Norwegian) who have cooperated to keep a valid claim out of the English court room. They do not serve justice, but accept bribes to aid and abet corrupt corporations and their agents. These members of The Law Society are criminals. They are a disgrace to any and all professions or professional organizations. The Law Society does nothing to those who violate the published Code of Ethics.
As a USA citizen sponsored by Norwegian Petroleum Geo-Services (PGS) to live and work with their English subsidiary PGS Exploration (UK) Limited (PGSUK) with a Tier 2 visa, SDK was a target of workplace harassment and discrimination. PGSUK obstructed my legal and contractual right to launch a complaint / grievance. PGS offered a termination settlement contract to escape having to follow legal procedures. SDK contacted Philip Simon Landau after my sponsor / employer PGS Exploration (UK) Limited Human Resources Manager David Nicholson proffered a termination settlement contract to avoid proceeding legally through the grievance process.
Philip Simon Landau received a copy of the formal grievance which had been submitted and should have been easily recognized as legally protected public disclosure or whistleblowing. Nevertheless, Philip Simon Landau recommended to his USA-citizen Tier 2 visa sponsored client an “enhanced settlement termination contract” and not proceed through the legally prescribed grievance procedures. Settlement contracts that prohibit the publication of legally protected public disclosure – whistleblowing – through “gagging clauses” are not enforceable or illegal under English law. Norwegian law similarly makes such contract terms illegal.
Philip Simon Landau had accepted bribes to conspire with criminals to defraud, defame and blacklist his client. PGS Exploration (UK) Limited used corrupt global law firm, Watson Farley & Williams, to gaslight and proceed through an illegal settlement contract negotion to avoid proceeding through the legal grievance process. Rhodri Thomas, with Watson Farley and Williams, was engaged to negotiate an illegal termination settlement contract on behalf of PGS. Philip Simon Landau and Rhodri Thomas without prejudice communications acknowledged that there was a grievance as well as the disputed performance issues. The intention of this fraud was to deny their sponsored foreign worker and victim of crimes legal due process prescribed under English law and contract.
Philip Simon Landau aid Holly Rushton (now Holly Hobson) was brought in to participate in the fraud and be a buffer to direct questions to Philip Simon Landau. It must be understood that as a victim of illegal harassment and discrimination in the work place there was obviously a motivation to escape a toxic and health-harming environment. Under Norway’s Working Environment Act, employee’s are required to report acts of harassment and discrimination. However, PGS Norway Global HR, Terje Bjølseth was allowed to break the law with support from Legal General Counsel and Compliance officer, Rune Olav Pedersen and protect the wrong-doers by proffering an illegal contract instead.
Prepare for the 1:1 Ambush Meeting
The negotiation period was officially from 22 October 2013 through 5 December 2013. The actual grievance was delivered to PGS management 20 September 2013. PGS had taken several measures to obstruct the delivery of the grievance which should have been delivered around 18 June 2013 following an ambush meeting on 13 June 2013 hosted by PGS UK Manager David Nicholson, my first line supervisor, Edward von Abendorff, and his superior Simon Cather, Marine Contract Africa Region President. (I had asked about submitting a grievance by email 18 June 2013.) Ambush meetings / firings are a common tactic used to protect harassers and workplace bullies.
It is a perversion of justice. Norway’s PGS has allowed its employees, customers, competitors and the industry to be disparaged and never executed the contractual terms prohibiting such publications. In a true court of justice, the crimes would be easily revealed. This is why no action is taken. Too many corrupt stakeholders have participated in the fraud and have a vested interest in continuing the lie that benefits themselves.
By the laws of England and contained within the employment contract, employees have a right to submit a grievance to their employer.
By the laws of England, employer’s must respond to the grievance and the employee must be informed of their right to appeal the response.
Because SDK was a USA citizen, PGS / PGS Exploration (UK) Limited decided to discriminate and bypass the laws of England and company policy to deny SDKs right to submit a grievance and have it be processed legally.
PGS / PGS Exploration (UK) Limited decided to cheat and break the laws of England and do whatever was necessary to not address issues presented within a grievance and instead end the matter by expelling SDK and dependent family members by-passing the laws of England.
PGS / PGS Exploration (UK) Limited bribed lawyers / legal firms Watson Farley & Williams and LZW Solicitors (LZW was hired to represent SDK) to gaslight and coerce SDK into signing an illegal settlement contract to terminate his employment and not follow the legal grievance process.
The settlement was illegal and used primarily to illegally terminate SDK and family member visa’s and get their victims out of England where crimes were committed. This allowed perpetrators to escape legal civil and criminal accountability under the laws of England.
PGS is processing forged and illegal documents as SDKs personnel records. This could be proven within an English court of law.
SDK and his dependent family members would be owed substantial monetary damages and several executives within PGS, Watson Farley & Williams, and LZW Law should face criminal prosecution and prison time.
This is what the government of Norway supports? The crimes committed against SDK and his dependent family members happened while SDK and family members were sponsored by PGS and held visas to legally live and work in England.
H.M.S. Pinafore: “He is an englishman”
The government of Norway supports their corporate leaders deceiving government immigration and data protection agencies? PGS produced false personnel records and shared them globally to illegally retaliate and blacklist from employment a foreign worker whistleblower.
Much of the evidence has been posted on-line since 20 September 2015. No legal action has been taken? The government of Norway supports the destruction of evidence exposing corporate criminal behavior which deceives market investors.
The government of Norway supports extortion and bribery to retaliate against a USA citizen whistleblower and his Thai-USA citizen dependent family members? PGS bribed legal firm Watson Farley & Williams and Duensing-Kippen in Thailand to harass and file false “criminal defamation” charges for publishing legally protected public disclosure under the laws of England – Public Interests Disclosure Act 1998.
Norwegian and world citizens must demand that their government and corporate elite follow the law and stop obstructing justice.
PGS must be compelled to appear in the courts of England FIRST and then the Federal Courts of the USA. PGS has also broken numerous Norwegian laws, but apparently that is okay? Norway’s corporate elite are allowed to break international laws and be protected by the corrupt Norwegian government as well.

“Not Ready To Make Nice”
Forgive, sounds good Forget, I’m not sure I could They say time heals everything But I’m still waiting

I’m not ready to make nice I’m not ready to back down I’m still mad as hell and I don’t have time to go round and round and round It’s too late to make it right I probably wouldn’t if I could ‘Cause I’m mad as hell Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should
I know you said Can’t you just get over it It turned my whole world around And I kind of like it
I made my bed and I sleep like a baby With no regrets and I don’t mind sayin’ It’s a sad sad story when a mother will teach her Daughter that she ought to hate a perfect stranger And how in the world can the words that I said Send somebody so over the edge That they’d write me a letter Sayin’ that I better shut up and sing Or my life will be over
I’m not ready to make nice I’m not ready to back down I’m still mad as hell and I don’t have time to go round and round and round It’s too late to make it right I probably wouldn’t if I could ‘Cause I’m mad as hell Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should

The conspiracy to defraud and commit other crimes against SDK and his dependent family members were only possible because SDK and his dependent family members were foreigners sponsored by PGS on a UK Tier 2 Visa.
Employee’s of PGS Exploration (UK) Limited must read and confirm understanding of the PGS UK Personnel Handbook (“the Handbook”). The Handbook states the laws guiding the written policy are the laws of England. This includes policies regarding grievance and disciplinary procedures. This also includes addressing employment of foreigners.
The direction and management of PGS / PGS Exploration (UK) Limited have been irresponsible and destructive. Directors and employees have allowed publication of copious amount of legally protected public disclosure and taken no action to protect the value and reputation of the company, its stakeholders, and the industry at large. They have all breached their contracts and fiduciary responsibilities.
This website, london-landua-law.com exists because Philip Simon Landau, principal of Landau Law Solicitors, is a criminal peice of shit who perverts the course of justice. If Philip Landau’s settlement contract on behalf of USA citizen client, SDK were a legal instrument, SDK should be sued in the courts of England for disparaging his former employer, co-workers, customers, and competitors of PGS Exploration (UK) Limited, 4 The Heights, Weybridge, Surrey, England. The last thing criminal Philip Simon Landau wants to do is go to an English court because he would go to English prison shortly thereafter. My hope is that he does spend a long time in prison for his fraud and debasement of the legal profession and crimes against me and my family.
Why isn’t the former Tier 2 visa sponsor and employer of USA citizen SDK, PGS Exploration (UK) Limited, Weybridge, Surrey, England upset with the London Employment Solicitor Philip Simon Landau Rubbish Settlement Contract that is supposed to prohibit the publication of content that disparages Norwegian company (organized criminal oil and gas cartel) PGS ASA or any of its subsidiaries and stakeholders?
Philip Simon Landau, principal at London Landau Law and former principal at LZW Law Limiteddiscriminated, defrauded, and defamed USA citizen client SDK. Philip Simon Landau aided and abetted criminals who illegally denied sponsored Tier 2 visa holder to submit and follow the required workplace grievance process. Philip Simon Landau conspired to create fraudulent personnel records to blacklist whistleblower SDK. Philip Simon Landau defrauded the UK, USA, and Thailand immigration agencies. Philip Simon Landau also defrauded the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) who oversee personal data processing compliance. Philip Simon Landau has misrepresented unsigned and inaccurate personnel records as compliant to data protection laws. Every record processed to support the illegal termination of a whistleblower is illegal, and therefore in violation of the UK Data Protection Act.
Philip Simon Landau misrepresented his client, SDK, a USA citizen sponsored on Tier 2 visa along with family dependents, to be removed from England and sent to the USA under false pretenses. Philip Simon Landau aided criminals through helping them remove their victim of crimes from the UK and thus essentially taking away SDKs legal right to use the UK criminal and civil justice system.
There are two ways of to deal with content that disparages company reputation and value: removal and suppression
Removal: The inclusion of confidentiality clauses within employment or settlement contracts seek to prohibit publication of content which disparages company stakeholders. Those who breach confidentiality clauses expose themselves to civil litigation for claims of damages.
It is clear that there is a legitimate place for confidentiality clauses signed as part of an employment contract. These are used by employers to protect commercially sensitive information and to prevent their employees sharing such information with their competitors. We also heard evidence that many employees who sign a settlement agreement at the end of their employment with an organisation value the inclusion of confidentiality clauses, as they allow them to move on and make a clear break. However, using these clauses to silence and intimidate victims of harassment and discrimination cannot be tolerated, which is why we are introducing reforms.
CONFIDENTIALITY CLAUSES – Response to the Government consultation on proposals to prevent misuse in situations of workplace harassment or discrimination, UK Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy
Suppression: Contact Google to remove sites that violate their policies. For example, publishing sensitive financial or personal information is against Google policies. When illegal confidentiality clauses are used, suppression is illegally used to cover-up criminal acts and keep them from proceeding through the legal court process.
A BuzzFeed News investigation has found examples of executives, doctors, criminals, and even a Russian oligarch all benefiting from search engine manipulation campaigns to suppress negative content.
The Minister of Petroleum and Energy is a councilor of state and chief of Norway’s Ministry of Petroleum and Energy. The current minister is Terje Aasland. Tina Bru served in this post from 2020 to 2021. Criminal accusations of executives within the Norwegian Petroleum and Energy industry have been published by USA citizen and whistleblower SDK since 4th July 2015 and ignored, in violation of Norwegian laws (Working Environment Act). In fact, the corrupt Norway government has PROMOTED and PROTECTED criminals and abusers of USA and Thai citizens. Irresponsible corporate board of directors members and executives do not execute contractual confidentiality clauses which prohibit publication of disparaging content to protect company value and reputation which is fiduciary malfeasance!
