Woodstock Legal Services Strengthens Team with Highly Experienced Employment Law Solicitor

Lee Taylor • April 9, 2024

Woodstock Legal Services continues its regional expansion, welcoming Tony Bertin, a highly respected Consultant Employment Solicitor with over 45 years of experience in employment law.


Based in Kent, Tony has witnessed the evolution of employment law firsthand, including the establishment of the UK's first employment tribunals.


Tony has a hard-earned reputation for assisting both employers and employees across the country, with particular expertise in the Southeast and London. His unparalleled depth of knowledge makes him a trusted source of advice for all aspects of employment law.


Speaking about joining Woodstock, Tony said:


"I’ve seen employment law transform dramatically since those early tribunals. While it offers more robust protections today, the field has also become increasingly complex. That's why I'm thrilled to join the forward-thinking team at Woodstock Legal Services and help clients navigate this ever-evolving landscape. Their commitment to staying ahead of the curve aligns perfectly with my own dedication to providing strategic employment law solutions."


Tony joins Woodstock's established employment team, working alongside Amy Cousineau-Massey and Richard Hiron, both of whom have significant experience in contentious and non-contentious employment law matters. Together, the team covers a wide range of employment law issues throughout England and Wales. This includes expert guidance on contract reviews, settlement agreements, redundancy processes, mediation, and tribunal defence. The team has also quickly established an enviable reputation for advising business leaders, senior executives, directors, and board members in workplace disputes.


Carly Jermyn, CEO at Woodstock Legal Services said:


“We are delighted to welcome Tony to our team. His unparalleled experience provides our clients with a strategic advantage in the ever-evolving field of employment law.”


Woodstock Legal Services has been on an upward trajectory since its inception in Canford Cliffs, Poole, in 2014. The firm now has an impressive team of over 50, attracting top legal talent from regions including Dorset, Devon, Hampshire, Oxfordshire, Kent, Yorkshire, London, the Midlands, and Wales.


The firm's growth can be attributed to its flexible, consultancy-based approach to legal work and unwavering commitment to client service.
