Biography

I am a Employment Lawyer specialising in employment litigation within the legal expenses insurance team. I support Claimants and Respondents through a wide range of workplace disputes, including unfair dismissal, discrimination, whistleblowing, redundancy, breach of contract, and unlawful deduction from wages claims.

I have experience assessing the merits of employment claims, managing cases through ACAS Early Conciliation, Employment Tribunal proceedings, and settlement negotiations. My approach is focused on providing clear, practical advice that enables clients to make informed decisions during what can often be a challenging and stressful time.

I pride myself on building strong client relationships and explaining complex legal issues in a straightforward and accessible manner. Committed to achieving the best possible outcomes, I work proactively to resolve disputes efficiently while ensuring clients feel supported, informed, and confident throughout the litigation process.

Irwin Mitchell provided an outstanding service in our Employment Tribunal case. From first contact Lauren Jones, Munisa Malik, and Charley Lawson all kept in regular contact, responded to emails quickly and diligently, and explained everything to us in a way that significantly reduced the stress we were feeling during a difficult time. I was so thankful to have them on our team and they conducted every step of the case professionally and to an exceptionally high standard. The drafting of case preparation documents and their sifting of huge amounts of information to distil the salient points, ultimately providing a successful outcome, was phenomenal. They secured and instructed counsel who provided the highest level of advocacy, no doubt thoroughly prepared by this team at Irwin Mitchell. We could not have asked for a better legal team and I would highly recommend Irwin Mitchell to all. - 5* Google Review
