Get to know Graham
I qualified as a solicitor in 2006 and I've practiced in the field of employment law for over 15 years.
I joined Slater and Gordon in 2021 and I advise clients on a wide range of different employment related issues, disputes and claims.

I've worked in an employment team that has twice won the Liverpool Law Society employment department of the year award.

Graham Roberts has executed his duties and guided me throughout a very difficult year regards issues. He was able to negotiate a successful conclusion long before date for official meetings had been set. The advice he gave me and helped with very much stopped some possible knee jerk reactions on my part. Taking that advice and actually applying it was the hardest part. Many thanks to Graham and his professional approach leading to a successful outcome in my favour.
