Uber Driver Claims & Bolt Driver Claims

We are here to assist

Fairmont Legal’s proven track record, having successfully represented drivers claim against Uber, means we are well placed to assist Bolt Drivers.

If you are/were an Uber driver or you have provided any type of service as a worker under short-term contracts, our team of experts can help you make a claim in the employment tribunal to recover payments which you are rightfully owed.

The same now extends to those driving for Bolt.

In a judgment handed down on 8th November 2024, the employment tribunal ruled that Bolt drivers are not, as Bolt tried to argue, self-employed contractors running their own businesses but are in fact “workers”. This ruling grants drivers the right to holiday pay and minimum wage, which they did not have previously. 

We will act for you under a “no win no fee” agreement, meaning you don’t pay us a penny unless you win your claim. If successful, we will deduct 25% plus VAT from your compensation for our legal fees.
