Jim Roberts heads up the employment law team at Hesketh Henry and also co-leads our Litigation and Disputes Resolution team. The breadth and depth of his experience through his 15 year career in employment law means he offers clients sound compliance advice and case management in all areas of his field.

Jim helps his clients, who are from a range of industries, develop their employment strategies which include collective bargaining, personal grievance processes, disputes, human rights, health and safety and accident compensation.

As well as providing strategic legal advice, Jim has been involved in collective bargaining in industries as varied as aviation, maritime, dairy, meat, finance, electricity, telecommunications and insurance.

Jim also assists his clients with compliance work in order to minimise the exposure to risk in these areas, with a particular focus on employment agreements and issues arising from mergers and acquisitions.

During his career, Jim has acted on a number of leading cases. Particular highlights are a Court of Appeal benchmark case on the correct approach to interpretation of collective contracts and appearing in the Privy Council regarding employment jurisdiction.

Jim takes the time to get to know his clients’ business and to understand the people behind the issues. He balances this with providing sound legal advice in a straight forward and professional way.
