The Manchester- and Liverpool-based team at Brabners LLP is ‘extremely diligent and focused’. Nick Campbell heads the employment, pensions and immigration team from the Liverpool office and is described as ’first-class’ by clients; his client list is formed of directors and senior executives whom he assists in negotiations concerning exit packages, settlement agreements, bonuses and restrictive covenant releases. In Manchester, Lydia Edgar is also well-placed to advise senior executives on high-profile matters ranging from appointments to exits, particularly those in the sports sector, while Simon Whitehead has a recruitment specialism. Siobhan Howard-Palmer acts for claimants in discrimination, GDPR and contract-related matters, among others. Sports and employment specialist Matthew Lavelle is also ‘outstanding’.
