Announcement: Kate Lea - promoted to Department Head

We are delighted to announce that Senior Associate Solicitor, Kate Lea, has been promoted to Head of Employment Law.

Kate’s practice centres on discrimination. Most notably Kate secured a landmark victory against the Home Office in the Supreme Court (Essop & Others v The Home Office) which remains a leading authority for indirect discrimination. An accolade for which Kate was awarded, ‘The Times Lawyer of the Week.’

Kate has extensive experience advising in all aspects of discrimination.  She has a particular passion for disability discrimination work and has a successful track record advising claimants with complex disabilities, mental health issues and neuro diverse conditions.

Kate is pragmatic, down to earth, and commercially astute and goes above and beyond to deliver for her clients.
