Overview

Roz is an established and experienced barrister, having been a member of Chambers for over 10 years since successful completion of her pupillage in 2012. Her practice is primarily comprised of two of chambers’ core areas, namely Employment (including Discrimination) and Personal Injury together with some work in Clinical Negligence.  She is also a qualified mediator and acts as an investigator or decision-maker in internal employment processes.

As part of her Employment Law practice, Roz regularly undertakes a wide variety of Employment Tribunal hearings ranging from preliminary hearings to multi-day final hearings. She has experience of dealing with a broad range of cases including those concerning discrimination, unfair and wrongful dismissal, breach of contract, wages claims (including unlawful deductions and breach of Pay Regulations), equal pay, Working Time Regulations (including holiday pay), TUPE, whistleblowing, industrial action, protective awards, Health & Safety and parental rights. Particular issues that arise across such areas which Roz has significant experience in advising and advocating on include jurisdiction (including territorial, time and status issues), pensions, ACAS Code breaches, strike-out/deposit applications, estoppel/abuse and privilege.

Within her Personal Injury practice, Roz has represented both Claimants and Defendants in a range of trials and hearings in the Civil Courts, including applications and CMCs on both the fast and multi tracks, costs budgeting hearings, multi-track and fast-track trials and quantum hearings. Commensurate with her level of call, her practice nowadays is primarily comprised of multi-track matters with frequent CCMC and application hearings, and trials where applicable. She also regularly advises on both liability and quantum in personal injury claims, together with drafting pleadings where appropriate, as well as having considerable experience of negotiations and JSMs. Roz is happy to undertake work on a CFA in suitable cases.

As well as regularly undertaking hearings in Tribunals, County Court and High Court, Roz has also appeared in the EAT and Court of Appeal, and assisted in a case before the Supreme Court (Jones v FTT [2013] UKSC 19; [2013] 2 AC 48).

Before joining chambers, Roz worked for a national firm’s Serious Injury Team for a total of two years. In her role as a paralegal she dealt with RTC, employer’s liability, and occupiers’ liability cases, ranging from fast track matters to multi-million pound catastrophic injury claims. Since joining chambers, she has also undertaken a 3-month secondment with the Employment Team at another leading Solicitors’ firm.

Roz is an accredited mediator with experience of conducting mediations on a variety of topics. She can also draw upon her experience as an advocate representing parties in a mediation in her role as a barrister.

Roz read Mathematics and Philosophy at Oxford University. She then obtained a Distinction for the Graduate Diploma of Law and was graded Outstanding for the BVC from the College of Law. She was awarded scholarships from the Inner Temple for both the GDL and BVC.

Roz is a member of ELA, ELBA, PIBA and the Society of Mediators.
