In 2025 alone, disability discrimination claims increased by 14%, with reasonable adjustment failures forming one of the fastest-growing categories.
Welcome to TSL’s Weekly Edge, whether you’re aiming for a regional or high-street practice, or just want to get a feel for how law works in the real world beyond textbooks, you’re in the right place.

Things don’t always go right the first time, and that’s okay.
