Chambers of James Murphy

At Parklane Plowden, the practice’s ‘strength and depth is fantastic, with numerous members who are experts in employment law’. Claimant and respondent work remains prominent in the group’s workloads, with notable strength in advising on discrimination claims, whistleblowing, TUPE and equal pay matters, the latter an area in which Andrew Sugarman is singled out for his expertise. Sugarman co-heads the team with Dominic Bayne, who ‘quickly puts his client and witnesses at ease and makes them feel comfortable within a tribunal setting’. Claire Millns garners praise for her ‘laser-focused approach’, and regularly acts for respondents in complex cases involving whistleblowing and allegations of discrimination.
