Overview

Rad specialises in employment & discrimination law and professional discipline. He has appeared in the Employment Appeal Tribunal on over 100 occasions, including at least 70 final hearings, and regularly appears in the Court of Appeal unled. He appears before judges across the judicial spectrum, from lay magistrates to Lord Justices of Appeal. This broad experience demands versatility as an advocate, adapting to the demands of his tribunal, and is reflected by his wide client base which includes individuals, trade unions, police forces, national and multinational companies, charities, and NHS Trusts.

Rad is well known in the employment law sphere, acting for employees and employers. He tends to defend healthcare professionals and prosecute police officers at disciplinary hearings.

Rad is listed as a leading junior in both Chambers and Partners and The Legal 500 for employment and was shortlisted as ‘Employment Junior of the Year’ at the Chambers UK Bar Awards 2023.

Before pupillage, Rad worked as a research assistant to Professor Alan Dershowitz at Harvard University and ran a niche employment law litigation practice.
