Career

With more than twenty years’ experience as an employment lawyer and an additional decade in the corporate law arena before that, Alan is renowned among clients for his dedicated approach and attention to detail.

He mainly advises employers and his clients range from small SMEs to larger companies with thousands of employees. Whether a client's concern is a complex TUPE service provsion change, a senior leaver trying to poach customers in breach of restrictive covenants or a potentially damaging employment tribunal claim, Alan has helped to steer tens of companies to a successful outcome.

Initially having practised as a corporate lawyer, Alan has a keen interest in the commercial issues surrounding a corporate client's given situation and he draws on that interest to focus on solutions to minimise disruption to the client's business and its reputation.

Alan advises employers on how best to streamline their management of staff and resources so that managers reduce the amount of time spent on areas where they add little value to the business.

He also assists directors and other senior executives in negotiating contracts with their employing company, or in forging a favourable exit deal if they are looking to move elsewhere.

Clients facing particularly challenging and stressful situations are delighted with Alan's style.
