TLT has recently appointed Joanne Hennessy, leading business immigration expert, as partner in its growing Glasgow office.
Joanne (pictured), who joins from Pinsent Masons, will lead a UK wide team of six immigration lawyers.
Joanne has extensive experience of supporting UK and multinational clients from a wide range of sectors on the full A to Z of business immigration. A trusted go-to advisor in immigration law, her expertise includes securing and maintaining sponsor licenses; identifying appropriate immigration route for employees and securing visas; right to work compliance and navigating the time-sensitive immigration actions triggered by mergers and acquisitions.
Some of Joanne’s recent experience has seen her advise professional services firms on the time-sensitive reports and applications required following multiple business acquisitions, conducting compliance audits for a global energy company, and advising a global employer on allegations of illegal working.
Commenting on her appointment, Joanne said: 'It’s an exciting time to be joining TLT and I’m looking forward to working with their talented business immigration team.'
Stuart McBride, partner at TLT added: 'Joanne’s appointment is an important step for the firm. It will allow us to strengthen our expertise in what is a complex, high-risk and fast-changing strand of law.'
