I advise employers on all aspects of employment law, working closely with my clients to achieve practical and commercial outcomes. I provide strategic advice to businesses in a range of sectors to support them with their HR needs. This includes advising on redundancies and reorganisations, disciplinary and grievance proceedings and dismissals. I am also experienced in working with clients to either review and amend or to draft bespoke employment contracts, policies and procedures.
I have particular experience with contentious employment law matters, and have successfully represented clients in a range of claims including complex discrimination, whistleblowing and dismissal claims. I am experienced in acting for companies defending high level employment disputes involving senior executives and/or shareholders.
I am also experienced in assisting companies with negotiating executive exits and advising on settlement terms. I am also experienced in drafting and advising upon restrictive covenants and pursuing employees where those restrictions are breached.
I also regularly provide training to clients on all manner of employment law topics.
