Spector Constant & Williams—Michael Michaeloudis and team

London firm launches employment department with four-lawyer team hire

Spector Constant & Williams has launched a new employment law department with the arrival of a four-lawyer team led by partner Michael Michaeloudis (pictured). He joins alongside senior associate Tariro Carmel Nyoka and associates Ifigenia Theodorou and Berin Karaaslan, forming a group that moves from another leading UK law firm.

The team will provide both contentious and advisory employment support to a broad client base, including employers, employees, senior executives and trade unions. Its offering spans areas such as unfair dismissal, discrimination, whistleblowing, redundancy and restructuring, TUPE transfers, and senior executive matters. The group brings experience handling complex, high-value disputes across multiple sectors, including financial services, technology and the public sector.

Co-founder Alun Williams said: ‘The arrival of Michael and his team marks an important milestone for our firm… their depth of experience… will enhance our ability to provide strategic advice.’ Michaeloudis, who has more than 19 years’ experience, is known for his work in tribunal advocacy and multi-party litigation, and has appeared in the Employment Appeal Tribunal and Court of Appeal.

Michaeloudis added: ‘We are delighted to be joining Spector Constant & Williams at an exciting stage in the firm’s growth. Our aim is to deliver pragmatic, strategic advice to clients navigating high-stakes workplace challenges, particularly in light of the Employment Rights Act and the significant changes it is introducing. By combining strong litigation capability with a commercially focused approach, we are well positioned to support clients across a wide range of industries.'
