About Rubel Bashir
I have a wealth of experience and expertise in all aspects of employment law. I have had the privilege of assisting a diverse range of clients, including senior executives and employees across various sectors, by providing effective, practical and results-driven solutions.
I am regularly instructed to advise on all aspects of employment law including discrimination law, grievances, disciplinary procedures, dismissals, and litigation. I’ve also appeared as an expert on employment law on national media including the BBC, Sky News, and several radio stations.
I’ve been described as a skilled litigator and fierce negotiator and consistently recognised by the Legal 500 as a leading individual in employment law and a Key lawyer. ‘Rubel Bashir is entirely professional, honest and pragmatic. He achieves excellent outcomes for ordinary working people, sometimes against the odds.’
I have a proven track record of securing favourable outcomes for my clients, achieving notable successes in challenging cases. Some highlights of my recent accomplishments include:
· Successfully representing a client in obtaining a reinstatement order following a finding of unfair dismissal, along with an additional award and legal costs, when the employer failed to reinstate.
– Successfully bringing a claim of disability discrimination at tribunal and being awarded a settlement of over £250,000.
– Settling a claim for rare associative discrimination before a final hearing.
· Obtaining a successful finding of employment status in an Employment Tribunal case, which led to a subsequent settlement with backstop deductions conceded.
· Resolving a claim through a successful settlement on the ninth day of a ten-day hearing in a complex whistleblowing claim against a large respondent organisation.
· Securing a successful appeal to the Employment Appeal Tribunal (EAT) on redundancy consultation, which received widespread attention and recognition.

"Overall a great experience with Monaco solicitors. The response was always swift Rubel Bashir was great at outlining anll details and making sure everything was clear for me. I would highly recommend them as they made a typically stressful situation go as smooth as possible."
Tracey"Highly recommended!"
"Great experience from start to end. I worked with Rubel who discussed our strategy and every step taken with me beforehand, so we were fully aligned. The matter was resolved over a few weeks, with some work required over weekends and at unsociable hours, but Rubel made sure everything that needed to happen at specific times did happen when required. His good advice and strong negotiating skills led to a highly successful outcome, and I felt supported during an emotionally stressful time. I will certainly be recommending Rubel and Monaco Solicitors on to others who need help!"
ER"Super helpful and supportive"
"Rubel from Monaco was super helpful and supportive regarding my employment queries - he broke down the process clearly and explained what was expected. As a result, a positive outcome was achieved. Would highly recommend Monaco for any employment queries"
