A member of the Employment Lawyers Association (ELA), she has specialist expertise relating to corporate support work, and regularly advises employers on training issues, as well as delivering seminars on a variety of topics.

The department has also made a further two promotions, with Louise Myers stepping up to senior associate solicitor and Charlotte Nuttall to associate solicitor.

Louise joined Napthens in 2013, bringing specialist knowledge of Employment Tribunal litigation, to advise clients across a range of sectors, with particular expertise in banking and transport.

Charlotte joined the team in 2012 and acts on behalf of clients for issues including disciplinary and grievance processes, sickness absence and Employment Tribunal claims.

Chris Boyle, head of the Employment team at Napthens, said: “The promotions come at a time when the department is experiencing real growth thanks to the success of HR3, our employment law retainer service. “HR3 has proved a real benefit for many of our clients, and these promotions reflect how highly we value the expertise and support Kimberley, Louise and Charlotte provide.”
