Lewis Silkin Ireland LLP

Employment

I have worked as a specialist employment lawyer for over 30 years, both in private practice in a number of large Dublin law firms and as in-house European employment lawyer at Intel Corporation. I bring my in-house experience to deliver commercial solutions and manage risk on a range of employment issues for employer clients.

My client base includes several of the largest multinational companies operating in Ireland as well as SMTs and public sector organisations. I advise issues such as absence management, equality, grievance, disciplinary and bullying and harassment investigations, transfers of businesses/outsourcing and terminations of employment. I also defend employment litigation claims in the Workplace Relations Commission, the Circuit Court and the High Court. I am a former Chair and longstanding member of the Employment and Equality Committee of the Law Society of Ireland.

I have advised the Board and member companies of the American Chamber of Commerce on all current and potential issues of significance to US multinationals operating in Ireland.
