Marianne Wright

Solicitor - Senior Associate

SRA ID: 538358

I have specialised solely in employment law since qualifying as a solicitor in 2015. I am experienced in advising employers and supporting business owners and HR Managers on a broad range of workplace issues, including managing grievance and disciplinary processes, as well as redundancy situations. This expertise enables me to ensure my clients are well-positioned to successfully defend against claims of unfair dismissal and constructive unfair dismissal. I engage with businesses of all sizes, taking time to understand their desired outcomes from specific situations. I then provide support and guidance to my clients, advising on the most effective strategies and approaches to achieve their goals. Furthermore, I believe it is crucial for employers to ensure that their contractual arrangements are accurate, compliant, and clear. To this end, I assist businesses in drafting employment documentation, such as contracts of employment, staff handbooks, and settlement agreements. I also frequently advise employees on a wide array of employment law matters, including settlement agreements and assisting my clients to negotiate enhanced exit packages. My experience extends to drafting and negotiating restrictive covenants, as well as advising and representing both employees and employers in Employment Tribunal cases. I joined Kilgannon & Partners LLP in December 2021, following its merger with Springhouse Solicitors.
