How Sunil works
Most discrimination cases are proved with documents and comparisons, not confessions. He builds them that way: who was treated how, by which rule, on whose say-so. He is direct with clients about how long a case against a public body can take.
He grew up in a household where three languages were spoken at dinner, and he takes calls in two of them.
