My role
I specialise in contentious employment law work across a range of sectors, acting for clients in employment tribunal proceedings, including claims for unfair and wrongful dismissal and unlawful discrimination. I also advise clients on the strategic implications of the transfer of undertakings legislation (TUPE).
My experience
I regularly advise clients on employee investigation issues and other ‘live’ internal disputes, I have considerable experience of drafting contracts of employment, zero hours agreements and staff handbooks for care providers and advising on working time, minimum wage and annual leave entitlement issues.
