Dear all,

Regular member here.

Little point in going to much detail at this stage, but:

I have worked for my current firm for the last 3.5yrs.

Very successful period. Growth 1000%+ in time I have been there (my account).
> GBP10m profit booked over that time.
Promotions, salary doubled, 50% bonus average per year.
Unblemished record, exemplary annual reviews, six days sick in period.

Line manager has become increasingly irrational, classic threatened behaviour. Despite having recruited me. Known for being horrendously short fused and angry. Culminated in my receiving a shocking phone call on Friday morning when I called in sick (left message with colleague as he wasn't yet in). I mean just outrageous.

Here's the nub. I have six months notice, 2nd half of 2 accrued bonuses totalling GBP125k which I will lose if I resign. Also my prorata bonus for this year (due April) will be GBP70k (am 7/8ths of way to target for 2014). There may be some long term incentives too. Need to check paperwork).

A lot to lose financially. I can get another job very easily, leaving doesn't worry me.

I am confident that the behaviour of my boss over time and also on Friday constitutes bullying/harassment and I want to leverage this to have them pay me off all outstanding bonuses and notice. Remember this is not some compo, this is money I have earned.

Can someone please recommend me a solicitor with a demonstrable track record in dealing with cases of this nature? I need to act swiftly.

If it helps to be local, I am in EC3. Might also indicate my industry.

Thanks for reading.

Have got in touch with Olswang. Unfortunately both Catherine and Dan are on leave, but am talking to another partner tomorrow hopefully.

I mentioned your referral.

Thanks all. I'll update / ask some more Qs on this topic tomorrow.
