I am a specialist employment lawyer and CEDR accredited mediator with previous front office investment banking and manufacturing experience. Personally recommended in the Legal 500 for 2019 as a 'leading individual'​ for employment law in Essex, described as 'charming but tough in negotiations', and in Chambers for Employment East Anglia. I advise employers on all areas of employment law, including; unfair dismissal; redundancy; TUPE; restrictive covenants; all forms of Equality Act discrimination; whistleblowing; breach of contract; and dispute resolution. Essentially, I help my clients manage change in the workplace, providing pragmatic legal advice and commercially-driven HR support when decisions need to be made and strategies or restructurings implemented. As part of my 'prevention rather than cure' approach, I offer training to businesses large and small, designed to ensure that employers properly leverage and manage their key asset - their employees. I also act for individuals, and am well-known for both my work litigating and resolving high value discrimination claims, and my expertise in financial services-related restrictive covenant, regulatory and whistleblowing employment disputes.
