Liz joins the firm from her previous position as head of employment at Winston Solicitors. As a member of the Employment Lawyers Association, Liz brings over 15 years of experience, specialising in contentious employment tribunal work. She has previously achieved successful outcomes for clients in claims against employers, which range from insurance and financial services firms in the City to large national organisations, government departments, NHS Trusts, and universities.  

Liz has significant experience in numerous employment cases, including whistleblowing, unfair dismissal, and discrimination based on protected characteristics. Particularly interested in claims related to disability discrimination, Liz has significant experience in advising and negotiating the terms of settlement agreements.

We are confident that Liz’s extensive employment law experience and valuable knowledge will ensure we continue to always achieve the best possible outcome for each client, whether through negotiation, mediation, or litigation.'
