Cutting through the jargon and finding practical solutions for employers - that’s the priority for a new legal specialist at a Shropshire law firm.

New employment lawyer promises “practical solutions” for clients

Employment lawyer Gemma Workman has joined the Shrewsbury office of Lanyon Bowdler Solicitors, and John Merry, head of employment at the firm, welcomed her to the team.

“Gemma is an experienced solicitor, having initially worked in the south east of England and more recently in Shropshire for the past six years, before joining Lanyon Bowdler in January,” he said.

“We continue to see a strong demand for legal advice from businesses on employment issues.

“Gemma advises both employers and employees on all aspects of employment law, including in relation to settlement agreements, contracts of employment, disciplinary and grievance procedures, redundancies and employment tribunal proceedings.

“She is an excellent solicitor, and a great addition to our highly-regarded team.”

Gemma said she was delighted to join Lanyon Bowdler, and had a clear message for her new clients.

“Employment law can be incredibly detailed and confusing, especially when you are very busy running your business,” she said. “My main aim is to provide efficient and practical solutions for my clients.

“Lanyon Bowdler has a reputation for taking the same approach, so I am really pleased to be working for a firm which shares my ideals.”
