Littleton’s Employment Group has responded to a consultation launched by the Board of Directors of the Abu Dhabi Global Market (‘ADGM’) on 6 January 2015. The Board is proposing to establish a statutory framework of employment rights and an Employment Tribunal within the Emirate of Abu Dhabi. Damian Brown QC and Ed Kemp co-wrote the response with input from James Wynne, Nick Siddall and Katherine Apps.
Littleton is rapidly expanding its practice in the Middle East region. A number of members have full rights of audience before the DIFC Courts in Dubai. Damian Brown QC and James Wynne have recently appeared in cutting-edge employment cases within that jurisdiction.
