St Philips Chambers

Employment & Crime

With over twenty years’ experience in dealing with some of the most complex, high-stakes and fiercely contested cases in the industry, Wendy Miller offers genuinely novel and incisive strategies to her clients. Whilst many barristers will say they employ a forensic approach, few can compare with Wendy. Her vast experience of trying cases to the criminal standard of proof (itself, far in excess of the civil standard) means that she naturally ‘deep dives’ into the issues her employment clients face each time. This means that Wendy is across the fullest extent of her briefs and finds those innovative angles and approaches that unlock complex cases. One of Wendy’s main strengths, honed over many years of assimilating briefs containing thousands of pages of evidence, is her ability to cut to the issues quickly and to clarify the areas of dispute.

Wendy has a rare dual specialism in both employment and crime, as well as associated experience in licensing, environmental and trading standards issues. Her clients, many of whom have trusted her for over a decade, regularly commend Wendy for her exceptional level of professionalism, client care and effective, often clinical, advocacy before the Courts and Tribunals. Comfortable with a wide array of employment matters, Wendy’s understanding and expertise at the complex interface of regulation, criminal statute and reputation management sets her apart. Accordingly, Wendy thrives in complex matters with multiple interwoven issues.

Having worked in two large and high-profile solicitors’ firms, Wendy understands the specific needs of her professional clients. A natural advocate with decades of experience, she is equally at home in the Employment Tribunal, Mental Health Tribunals, Magistrates/Crown Court, Disciplinary Hearings, the Coroners Court and The Court of Appeal.
