A London employment tribunal has ordered Hogan Lovells partner Sylvain Dhennin to pay more than £18,000 in compensation to his former nanny after she successfully claimed she was directly discriminated against and unfairly dismissed because she was pregnant.
London partner Dhennin, who heads Hogan Lovells' high yield practice in Europe, was ordered to pay £18,366.62 damages to the claimant for, among other things, injury to feelings, loss of earnings and loss of maternity pay, after the tribunal described his evidence as "untrue", "confusing", "misleading" and "without foundation".
