Anna DawsonSenior Lawyer

As a rockhopper lawyer, I am on call, by telephone and email, to advise employers from a variety of sectors on whatever HR or employee relations issues they need assistance with. We deal with queries on all topics, including grievances, disciplinaries, sickness absence, family friendly provisions, performance management and TUPE. We also assist our clients in defending Employment Tribunal claims and dealing with data subject access requests, contract and handbook reviews.

Employment

I joined Lewis Silkin in 2013 as a member of the core employment team. Whilst there, I gained experience acting primarily for employers in all aspects of employment related matters from trade union relations to contract harmonisations.

I moved to rockhopper in 2015 at a time when my family and I were due to move further away from Lewis Silkins' Cardiff office. The flexibility of my rockhopper role means I can now do the school run and get back to my desk within 10 minutes flat!
