"Excellent insight and provides impeccable client service with a commercial lens"
Overview
Overview
I’m Counsel in our Jersey Litigation and Dispute Resolution practice and a member of our specialist Channel Islands Employment team.
I advise on the full range of employment and discrimination law matters, including litigation claims, complex employee relations issues, mergers and acquisitions and restructuring projects.
I have particular experience of collective or unionised employment issues, and contribute regularly to cross-border matters for clients operating globally.
My work also includes advising on discrimination law matters arising outside of the employment relationship. This has included obtaining an order striking out a claim against a provider of occupational health services, and negotiating the mediated outcome of a claim relating to the provision of customer telephone banking services.
I advise on all areas of data protection law, and have acted in a number of competition/antitrust matters and contentious matters deriving from Jersey’s financial services regulatory regime and tax information exchange legislation.
