BTO Solicitors LLP

With the Glasgow-based Caroline Carr anchoring BTO Solicitors LLP's employment law offering, it continues to stand out for its work in the healthcare sector, but the team also has expertise in the social housing, education and insurance industries. Clients often seek assistance with TUPE transfers, complex grievances and redundancy procedures; an area of notable growth has been employment tribunal proceedings, such as those pertaining to discrimination claims. Known for her specialism in the education sector, the Glasgow-based Laura Salmond is an essential contact for trade union and federation members. Dawn Robertson often handles senior executive departures, while senior associate Douglas Strang is recommended for his TUPE expertise.
