Boasting a marquee client list including international investment banks, government agencies, multinationals, the Simmons & Simmons team demonstrates ‘very strong and solid’ expertise in complex whistleblowing claims and internal policy breaches. The firm is particularly well regarded for organising internal investigations in relation to employee misconduct and employee grievances, with co-heads Fiona Loughrey and Wendy Wong specialising in employment arrangements, termination strategies, and Labour Tribunal claims. The ’very smart’ Wong is also an expert in restrictive covenants, data privacy, and discrimination cases, and Jane Chan predominantly focuses on employment contracts and handbooks. The group has broad sector knowledge, primarily concentrating on the financial services, energy, and asset management fields.
