Journey to law
Liza explored the world before beginning her journey to law. Having visited over 60 countries, she realised that she wanted to be a lawyer during one of her trips to India.
Following her legal training in London, she qualified in employment law as she was fascinated by the employer-employee relationship and the infinite ways in which it plays out in the real world. No two days are the same.
Liza relishes the challenge of demystifying employment law for her clients and has been doing so for over 12 years.

She provides advice on all aspects of the employment relationship, from recruitment to dismissal and has particular expertise in redundancy exercises, disciplinary and grievance processes, fixed-term workers and terminations at all levels.
Liza’s contentious experience extends to claims in the Employment Tribunal, EAT and the High Court covering most aspects of employment law including claims for unlawful deductions, unfair and wrongful dismissal, discrimination and breach of contract. Liza has also advised on a large variety of corporate transactions, many of which have involved complex TUPE aspects.
