Specialist law firm Michael Cummins Employment Solicitors has welcomed Katie Baker-Clifton as its new senior associate.
The solicitor has joined the Leicestershire-based legal firm which provides employers with advice and representation on all aspects of employment law.
A qualified solicitor since 2010, Katie previously worked at the Black Country commercial law firm Enoch Evans. The Staffordshire University graduate has a long track record in providing tailored, strategic and pragmatic legal solutions to businesses and individuals.
Her work has encompassed addressing employment grievances, navigating complex exit strategies and representing at Employment Tribunal proceedings, for a diverse client base including multi-nationals, HR teams, owner-managers and independent consultants.
Katie has joined the now six-strong team at Michael Cummins Employment Solicitors, which includes partner Fabienne McAllister and was founded by its director Michael Cummins in 2022.
Michael said: “Katie’s breadth and depth of experience in employment law is an incredibly good fit for the client-focused, pragmatic and commercially savvy services we provide.
“We are very excited that Katie has joined us, as she has both a very sound legal mind and an open and proactive approach to working with the client to achieve optimal outcomes.”
Katie, who is also a qualified Swim England coach as part of her volunteering, said: “I’m very excited to have joined what is a specialist employment law firm with an outstanding reputation. They are also lovely people, which was apparent from the first moments of meeting them.
“I’m looking forward to being part of a bigger team purely focussed on a field of legal services that I have specialised in for 14 years. It is going to be fulfilling to work with a team where I can contribute whilst also learning from their vast experience.”
