Employment partner joins the team

London firm Hodge Jones & Allen (HJA) has expanded the employment team with the addition of Joseph Nicholls as partner.

Joseph has joined the firm after more than five years with DAS Law, where he was a senior associate leading a team of eight which primarily focused on representing commercial clients in employment tribunal litigation. He is highly experienced in all manner of employment disputes, as well as providing advice on non-contentious issues.

HJA’s managing partner Vidisha Joshi commented: ‘Joseph’s arrival at the firm was necessary following our recent growth. Having worked with Joseph previously in another firm, he is a great lawyer and his experience of acting for both employers and employees will be a great asset and help build the team’s breadth of work.’

Joseph added: ‘I am excited to have joined the team at Hodge Jones & Allen at a time when the firm is experiencing great growth under Vidisha’s leadership and look forward to expanding the range of clients which we serve.’
