I am an experienced Employment Law Solicitor having qualified in 2003. Before joining the team at Guardian, I worked for a number of law firms predominately specialising in employment law, providing advice and support to organisations on all aspects of the employment relationship. I joined the team in 2010 and have worked alongside Nickie on and off since then, having taken a career break for a few years in 2012. During this time, I continued to work with the team as a Consultant on a part time basis, returning in 2018. My day to day job involves helping businesses manage their people, providing practical and tailored legal advice to numerous organisations large and small. I provide advice on issues including managing performance, dealing with issues of misconduct, handling disciplinaries and grievances, redundancies, TUPE and Employment Tribunal Represenation. Outside of work, I enjoy weight training, watching football and travelling to weird and wonderful locations.

On our side
I've worked with Claire and Guardian multiple times over the last few years. I have found Claire's advice very clear and hugely helpful. The team at Guardian are very much on our side and communicate well. I'd recommend Guardian to any other business owners in need of help with employment

A difficult staffing year
Claire has helped us navigate through some tricky situations throughout 2024 and guided us every step of the way, ensuring the company have acted professionally and within the law and the employees have all been treated fairly, with minimum disruption to the rest of the team. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend their services and will be using them for all our HR needs.

Outstanding support
Thank you very much for the ongoing support we receive from you.
To know that we can pick up the phone and ask questions we are unable to answer and feel confident in the advice given is a weight off our shoulders. Fully recommend Guardian Law Limited. Thank you, Claire.

Pleasure to work with!
Having worked with Guardian Law for the past 7 years, we have fostered great working relationships. I trust them to provide fair, legal but commercial advice around complex employee relations issues. They work to understand the business fully so they can provide the most appropriate advice and they are genuinely a pleasure to work with!

Employment contracts for small business
We needed to update our current employment contracts and staff handbook, so asked for Guardian Lawyers to review our templates and offer advice on improving and updating them.
Claire and Bina throughly reveiwed our templates and gave excellent advice on content, and even provided template clauses and sections we could adapt and use for our new and very much improved employee contracts and staff handbook.
They were both extremely efficient, and communication throughout the process was excellent.
Thank you!
