Leah Waller

Committee Member

Responsibilities

I help to assist the Chamber with legal issues and queries and enjoy getting involved and helping with our events, both for members of the Chamber and in the community.

Background

Head of Employment Law & GDPR Adviser

As Head of the Employment department at Lennons I deal with all aspects of the employment relationship from the very beginning, including recruitment, up to and following an employee’s departure from the employment.

I provide general advice on employment rights, disciplinaries and grievances, company contracts, policies, procedures and staff handbooks, redundancy consultations, restrictive covenants, exit packages and settlement agreements. Often, a practical resolution to a dispute can be reached without going to a Tribunal, however, when necessary, Tribunal proceedings will be pursued.

For employers, I know that employment issues can be a real headache and so I am to take away as much stress as possible, leaving you free to run your business.

If you feel I could assist you with any employment issues or disputes up to and including bringing or defending an Employment claim, please get in touch with me for an initial consultation.

How can I help save you where GDPR is concerned?

I can provide you with clear advice on the steps you need to take to protect your business including:

  • GDPR policy
  • Retention policy
  • Privacy Statement
  • Breaches Register
  • Record of Consents
  • How to deal with Subject Access Requests
  • Record Keeping
  • Staff Awareness Training
  • Bespoke Training

I am happy to meet with Chamber members, for a free initial consultation, to discuss their requirements and how I can help, so please get in touch.
