Since qualifying as a solicitor, in 2006, I have specialised in employment law with a particular focus on high value and complex discrimination claims. I advise both employees and employers.
My employee clients range from company directors and senior executives to junior employees. I regularly defend individuals who are subject to performance reviews or are facing allegations of misconduct and have secured reinstatement for individuals dismissed for gross misconduct.
I have a particular expertise in conducting complex workplace discrimination claims involving sex, maternity, race, and religious discrimination and have secured numerous high-value settlements against large multinationals, including financial institutions and PLCs. I also advise on unfair dismissals, contractual disputes and restrictive covenants.
I regularly negotiate termination agreements on behalf of my clients. When doing so my focus is to maximise the settlement sums whilst minimising stress to my client.
My employer clients have ranged from large companies to SMEs, charities and NGOs. I advise on policies and procedures. I take a common sense yet thorough approach when guiding employers through capability procedures, grievances and disciplinary proceedings and robustly defend legal claims in court. I offer training to companies on a wide variety of HR issues, such as best practice in recruiting, disciplining and dismissing employees. I also advise companies on how to handle grievances and steps to take to protect the organisation from complaints and legal claims from staff.
I have been recommended in the independent legal directories Chamber 2021 and Legal 500, 2021. I was described as “an excellent employment lawyer who is always willing to provide clear and coherent advice to both employers and employees.” In Chambers 2021 “She has vast knowledge of employment law and is great at finding pragmatic solutions.” “She is an excellent and dedicated lawyer with particular expertise in discrimination cases.“Client Comments
Patience and clarity of communication
“My entire experience working with Homa Wilson has been a professional, smooth and supportive experience. Her patience and clarity of communication was incredibly reassuring and gave me peace of mind whilst in a personally tumultuous period.

Looking back matters progressed pretty quickly, but during it every day felt like a 100 years to me – your patience and balanced assessment helped so much.

Very efficient and very easy to talk to
“Went to Hodge Jones and Allen after having employment issues. Got to see Homa Wilson who is very efficient and very easy to talk to. Made me feel so at ease and turned a document around in such short notice that it saved my job. Excellent work, totally recommended.”
Amazing, reassuring and approachable
“I was accused of gross misconduct by my employers. I immediately searched for a Solicitor with significant experience and expertise in employment law, a friend recommended Homa. Homa’s strategy enabled me to not only successfully defend the allegation of gross misconduct but to also secure a substantial financial settlement from my employers. Homa was amazing, she was reassuring, approachable and caring. She really knows her stuff. I am incredibly grateful to her.”
Advised me every step of the way
“Homa was recommended to me by a good friend and work colleague on hearing about the difficulties I was going through at work at the time – I am so glad he put me in touch with her. During what was a very stressful period in my life, Homa advised me every step of the way and above all made absolutely sure that I was totally clear at all times as to where I stood legally and what action needed to be taken. Homa formulated a clear strategy in order to deal with the matter, which resulted in a very positive outcome for me both personally and financially. If anyone has an employment issue I totally recommend they speak to Homa Wilson as soon as possible.” Mr M, Buckinghamshire
Helped me to achieve a great settlement package
“I came to Homa for advice when I was put at risk of redundancy. She was fantastically helpful and friendly, and I am so appreciative of how much time she spent explaining the various issues to me, so that I thoroughly understood my legal position. She advised what I should do at every step of the way and in a short time helped me to achieve a great settlement package. I would recommend Homa without hesitation!” Sarah Brown, London
Achieved a brilliant compensation package
“I was at risk of immediate dismissal and accused of gross misconduct when I came to Homa for help. Within a month she achieved a brilliant compensation package for me. My calls and emails were responded to very promptly, I was always kept updated about the progress of my case. She showed genuine care for me and guided me through a difficult and stressful situation. I am very grateful and impressed by the level of professionalism she displayed. Wow!” Ms S, Essex
