Lewis Silkin‘s Cardiff office provides ’pragmatic and to the point’ advice across the gamut of ad-hoc and ongoing employment needs for a myriad national, international, and local employers. ‘Commercially astute’ team head and newly appointed firmwide chair Lucy Lewis is adept at defending employers in complex discrimination cases, as well as providing strategic guidance to companies on redundancies and restructurings. In addition to excelling at advising on large-scale international projects, Richard Moore also often works collaboratively with the office’s growing corporate team to provide vital transactional employment support, including with regard to TUPE implications of M&A transactions. At a non-partner level, both Neil Dite and the ’responsive and commercial’ Amy Nevins have flourishing reputations, with Nevins particularly noted for her expertise assisting companies on global mobility matters.
