My role
I am an associate in the employment team at Anthony Collins Solicitors. I act for individuals, local authorities, schools, housing associations, charities and others in a range of contentious and non-contentions matters, including employment tribunal proceedings, settlement agreements, contracts of employment and policies, as well as discrete advice on employment-related issues.
My experience
I joined Anthony Collins Solicitors as a paralegal in 2015 and started my training contract in 2016, completing seats in corporate litigation, personal injury and clinical negligence and employment and property (development).
In September 2018 I qualified as a solicitor in the employment team. As an associate, I support clients with day-to-day employment issues as well as more complex matters.
