Jonathan Chamberlain practices employment law because it takes him right inside the client's organisation, understanding their culture, their values, their processes - how they do what they do and how they need their people to do it. He combines that understanding with his more than 20 years' experience to deliver solutions that take the organisation forward, not just solving that day's problem.
He has worked with clients of every size and at every level, from the shop-floor to the boardroom and from a loft in Clerkenwell to the C-suite in Michigan. Although he has covered every sector of the economy over the years, nowadays he tends to work mainly in tech, financial services, life sciences and advanced manufacturing. He has not seen it all before, just most of it or something very like it. This helps him to get to a better solution for clients, more quickly.
He has a particular focus on business protection. Recent cases have involved safeguarding clients' confidential information in Formula 1 racing and high-value consumer goods, as well as dealing with team-moves in financial services.
He has substantial experience of international employment work, including cross-border restructurings and outsourcings as well as litigation. As a member of the firm's US Desk, he works a great deal with USA Inc (and LLP) across Europe as well as the UK.
