A City lawyer who is demanding £19 million in compensation for work-place bullying faked a nervous breakdown to secure a larger payout, an employment tribunal was told. Gill Switalski, 51, the former head of legal affairs at Foreign & Colonial (F&C), an asset management company, pretended that her ordeal left her unfit to work so that she could sue for loss of future earnings, it was claimed yesterday.
