Bloomsbury Square Employment Law—Emily Bradshaw

Firm strengthens employee-focused offering with senior hire

Bloomsbury Square Employment Law has welcomed Emily Bradshaw as a partner, further enhancing its employee-focused practice. Emily joins from national firm Pattinson & Brewer, where she was a partner and head of employment, bringing nearly two decades of experience advising senior employees across sectors including finance, media, healthcare, and education.

Emily’s practice spans the full range of employment law, with particular expertise in discrimination claims involving age, disability, and pregnancy. She also has extensive litigation experience across multiple courts and tribunals, including the Employment Appeal Tribunal and the Court of Appeal.

She is known for negotiating enhanced settlement packages for senior executives, especially in contentious exits and retirement scenarios. Commenting on her move, Emily said she was drawn to Bloomsbury Square’s ‘focus on employees’ and its ‘collaborative, senior-led approach’.

Garvey Hanchard, partner at Bloomsbury Square, said the firm was ‘thrilled to welcome Emily’ and praised her ‘impressive track record’ and ‘commitment to employee-focused work’. He added that her arrival reflects the firm’s continued growth and investment in top talent.
