Yasmin Awan – Personal Biography
Yasmin qualified as a solicitor in a commercial law firm in 2005. She has over eleven years’ experience in advising clients on a broad spectrum of employment law matters.
Yasmin has extensive experience of advising both employees and employers on a wide variety of employment issues including discrimination, redundancy, unfair dismissal, disciplinaries and TUPE.
A particular interest in discrimination claims led to Yasmin spending some time working in a government body which specialises in discrimination claims and formulating public policy decisions in the discrimination law sphere.
More recently, Yasmin has represented both employees and employers in the employment tribunal with great success in cases including unfair dismissal, breach of contract and equal pay litigation.
Yasmin has significant experience in the healthcare sector, negotiating high-value settlements and litigating complex claims for employers. Her approach is to resolve disputes pragmatically and at an early stage where possible.
Yasmin regularly advises on the employment law aspects of business transactional work and has been heavily involved with complex TUPE matters. As such, Yasmin is well placed to advise employees on their rights in any business transfer situation.
Yasmin advises employers on drafting contracts of employment and employee handbooks, handling disciplinary and capability proceedings, and grievances including how to avoid employment tribunal litigation. Yasmin has a strong commercial background and an in-depth understanding of the commercial impact of employment law issues.
Yasmin is a member of the Employment Lawyers Association.
Yasmin can be available for radio interviews and for other media in relation to employment law matters. Contact Yasmin on 0118 208 2007
