Tom is a legal director in Fox Williams' employment team. He advises both employers and senior executives, particularly those in professional and financial services, on a wide range of contentious and non-contentious employment and HR matters.

Tom advises both employers and senior individuals on a wide range of employment-related matters. For Tom’s employer clients, many of which are law firms, barristers’ chambers or financial services firms, this includes advising on day-to-day issues, such as tricky disciplinary and grievance matters, managing sickness absence and poor performance, terminations and settlement agreements as well as ensuring their employment documentation is appropriate and up-to-date.

Tom also helps to guide employers through larger-scale projects, such as restructurings, redundancy exercises, outsourcing arrangements and corporate transactions, including the impact of TUPE and the use of secondments and transitional services arrangements.

Tom also regularly advises senior individuals who are at important stages in their careers by assisting them to negotiate important contractual protections in their service agreements, guiding them through disciplinary and grievance processes, advising on post-termination restrictive covenants and providing legal and tactical advice on negotiated exits and settlement agreements.

Tom regularly advises both employers and employees on how to handle Employment Tribunal litigation, in particular involving complex discrimination and whistleblowing matters and TUPE claims.

Tom joined Fox Williams in July 2014, having trained at Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP, where he qualified into the Employment department in March 2012.
