Cripps—Sarah Glockler

Employment team welcomes partner in London

Cripps has strengthened its employment team with the appointment of a new London-based partner, Sarah Glockler.

Joining from Memery Crystal, Sarah has over twenty years’ experience advising a wide range of clients, from large companies to senior executives, on all aspects of employment law. She advises companies on HR issues such as managing disciplinary and grievance procedures, as well as senior executives on managed exits and settlement agreements.

Sarah has a specialist focus on contentious employment law, and deals with litigation in both the employment tribunal and the high court. Some of her recent cases include whistleblowing and discrimination claims in the tribunal, and confidentiality cases in the High Court.

Melanie Stancliffe, partner in the employment team, said: 'We are delighted to be strengthening our employment offering to clients with Sarah joining our team in London. We are thrilled to add her contentious focus and expertise.'

Sarah added: 'I am looking forward to joining Cripps and its employment team. It will be great to assist Melanie Stancliffe and the rest of the team with the growth of the employment practice in London. I am looking forward to working with such a fantastic firm.'
