Michael is appointed to sit, part-time, as a Fee-Paid Employment Judge in the South West region at the Southampton hearing centre and is one of four Deputy Chairmen of the Jersey Employment and Discrimination Tribunal.
Michael appears in Employment Tribunals, the Employment Appeal Tribunal, County Courts, the High Court and has appeared in the Court of Appeal. He has also appeared in employment tribunals in Northern Ireland and Scotland.
Michael covers all elements of employment law and has a wealth of experience in discrimination litigation, TUPE and related matters as well as unfair/wrongful dismissal and claims under the Working Time Regulations. Michael represents a diverse range of clients, from individuals to multi-national companies. He is also instructed by a number of local authorities, public sector employers and Trade Unions.
Owing to the sensitive nature of many of Michael’s cases Michael is vetted to undertake claims involving national security issues. For such cases Michael has a secure email address, details of which can be obtained from him or his clerks.
Instructing Solicitors state that Michael:
“…is fantastic to work with – incredibly responsive, thorough and helpful. When his technical legal skills are combined with his down-to-earth and commercial approach, he is an invaluable asset on any matter.” LS 2017
“… is amongst the most capable barristers, in any field, that I work with. He is user-friendly, extremely knowledgeable and pro-active. If he is instructed you know that he will be perfectly prepared and will arrive with skeleton arguments, case summaries…. He is much respected by lay clients too and his easy-going but thorough style is appreciated by the judges he appears before…. His… accessibility by phone and email makes it so easy to work with him. A thoroughly excellent barrister” PG 2017
