It’s official: award-winning RJW Employment Team in a league of their own
21 September 2007
The latest edition of the Legal 500 , published this month, ranks the London Employment Team of national law firm Russell Jones & Walker at the top of the table for claimant employment work, in a category all of their own. The award-winning employment team is used to being rank at the top, however this year they have been placed in a league of their own for the first time.
RJW’s London office achieved the sole top tier ranking in Legal 500 for the ‘Employment – Employee/Union firms’ section of the directory, reflecting the teams “thriving senior executive practice, as well as acting for unions such as the Police Federation, Prospect, and the British Armed Forces Federation.”
Edward Cooper heads the “tenacious” team and other names to note within the department are Clive Howard (a “pragmatic pair of hands”), the “committed” Paul Daniels and the “ebullient” Julie Morris, who is recommended for discrimination work.
Edward Cooper, Head of the award-winning Employment Law Team at Russell Jones & Walker, who act only for claimants, said:
“The position of RJW as the sole top tier firm in the Legal 500 reflects the quality of our work and continued success. This has been a particularly good year for the team as we have just been recognised by the Equal Opportunities Review (published August) for achieving the highest Employment Tribunal compensation awards for unlawful discrimination on behalf of clients in 2006. We believe our success will continue into 2008 and well beyond.”
