More About Philippa
Philippa’s experience covers the spectrum of employee-employer relations and she provides timely, effective and strategic advice to solve workplace concerns as they arise. If a client has an issue that needs to be addressed, Philippa works to ensure that the concern is resolved in a way that meets the commercial and operational drivers for her clients. Philippa works with clients across a broad range of industries including retail, financial services, transport, logistics, and the legal industry (yes, lawyers need lawyers too).
At heart, Philippa is a litigator and relishes the opportunity to represent her clients’ interests in tribunals and courts in all jurisdictions. In litigious matters, Philippa has carved out a niche expertise in contentious and often high profile restraint litigation, and pairs this with a love for complex industrial and employment disputes. Philippa is an exceptional project manager of large litigious disputes and works with clients to make sure such matters are managed in a way that limits the time-cost to employers who need to get on with business as usual.
