Mishcon de Reya LLP is frequently engaged to handle complex matters involving restrictive covenants, team moves, bonus disputes, shareholder disputes and data theft. On the disputes front, the group is active in regulatory and internal investigations, as well as regularly appearing in employment tribunals and before the courts. Daniel Naftalin heads up the practice, which benefits from his significant experience handling move-related disputes in the High Court, in addition to discrimination and whistleblowing claims. Also forming a key part of the team are Joanna Blackburn, an expert in contentious cases; Jennifer Millins, who specialises in discrimination and whistleblowing claims; Susannah Kintish, who is regularly instructed in relation to senior-level terminations; Greg Campbell, a specialist in employment matters in the financial services sectors, as well as LLP and partnership disputes; Sharon Tan, who handles whistleblowing claims; and Matthew Wood, who was promoted to partner in April 2024 and handles high-value exit packages with complex incentive arrangements. Katie Mahoney also provides capable support.

‘My experience of Mishcon was that they are naturally very au fait with the legal specifics of contract negotiations, but they were also highly attuned to the commercial aspects of our negotiation. I was naturally expecting the very best legal advice when I contracted Mishcon, but (as an experienced business executive) I was not expecting to rely on their commercial advice to the extent that I eventually did. This was a very powerful combination, which led to an excellent outcome in a very adversarial and stressful process.’
‘My business partner and I felt absolute confidence in our representatives. While our exit negotiations from our business were completely new to us, it was clear that this was a very well trodden path for our very experienced representatives. Their complete strategic clarity and confidence was very reassuring.’
‘Great team - the people are always well briefed, follow up and availability are high, very transparent on billing and they have a positive attitude and are ready to receive feedback.’
‘Susannah Kintish is second to none. She gave the best advice for my exit. She is extremely clever and experienced, and has the ability to delegate to the junior members of the team but is also available as soon as we need a senior view. She acts as a trusted adviser and I trusted Susannah immediately - she got it, with no need to explain during hours of calls.’
‘The team are all very smart and engaged. They think strategically, and really add value.’
‘Sharon Tan is excellent. She is able to get to the heart of the issue very quickly. She is easy to deal with and responds very quickly. She offers really strong commercial advice, which has been invaluable.’
‘Highly experienced, professional and friendly law firm. Mishcon are quick to respond to enquiries, get to the heart of the matter and issue promptly, and provide full support, counsel and guidance throughout. They are experts in the field and specialism and have been a great resource for me personally and professionally.’
‘The personal service that I received provided me with great confidence during a particularly difficult time. I was aware that the team were available to me if I had any questions and they had taken the time to research my situation so that I did not need to answer the same questions repeatedly. I was greatly impressed by this - it is all too lacking in business.’
