TAYLOR&EMMET EMPLOYMENT EXPERT IN CITY’S TOP FIVE

A partner at leading Sheffield solicitors, Taylor&Emmet LLP, has achieved official industry recognition as one of the top employment lawyers in the region.

David Poddington, Taylor&Emmet’s head of employment law, is included in this year’s Legal Experts Directory for the first time, ranking him among the best in his field.

David is one of only five employment law specialists in Sheffield listed in the directory, which highlights leading lights in the legal profession to help business and personal clients identify regional specialists in various areas of practice.

The directory is compiled in part from research by the Legal 500. David’s inclusion not only positions Taylor&Emmet closer to the city’s top tier practices, but also reinforces last year’s Legal 500 findings that saw him receive a personal mention for his ability “to build long and lasting client relationships” and noted the firm is “hot on the heels” of the big names in Yorkshire.

Anthony Long, Taylor&Emmet’s chief executive, said: “On behalf of everyone at Taylor&Emmet, I would like to congratulate David on achieving a mention in the Legal Experts Directory. It reflects the great strides made by our employment department under his leadership and demonstrates that we are a viable alternative for clients looking for good value, top quality legal advice. The appointment of Jenny Arrowsmith from Eversheds has further enhanced our employment team and I have no doubt it will continue to go from strength to strength.”
