A banker is suing her former sex discrimination lawyer who she says advised her 'to start crying' the next time she had a meeting with her boss, The Daily Mail reports
Hedge fund manager Celia Elizabeth Farnon wants millions in damages from law firm Devonshires because of bad advice she claims was given by her lawyer, Nicola Philp.
Ms Farnon says she approached the law firm after her former employers, investment management company Polar Capital LLP, clipped her yearly bonus by 95 per cent from £800,000 to £36,615. She claims that, when she complained to her boss in May 2008, she was suspended.
Now she is asking Mr Justice Owen at the High Court in London to award her damages 'in the low millions' against the law firm, claiming they bungled her sex discrimination claim.
