Nikki has recently retired after over 40 years as a specialist Employment Law Solicitor, working first in London, and then as a partner in two south west commercial law firms. In recent years Nikki has coordinated all legal services to a Hospice, and advised a further Hospice, as well as a range of other Health Sector clients. As such, Nikki is able to bring relevant legal experience to complement the St Lukes’ Board.
Nikki has always been passionate about training up the next generation of lawyers. She spent several years on the Management Committee of the Employment Lawyers Association, which represents both barristers and solicitors, including time as its national Training Coordinator. This give Nikki the opportunity to help the Association provide excellent training and development for lawyers working in the developing Employment Law field of practice. These national roles, and her time on the Law Society Council, also gave opportunities, working with various Government departments, to input to the development of new Law, and to the professional standards needed to best serve the public. Again she hopes skills learnt may be helpful to St Lukes’ Board.
Nikki shares the ethos of St Lukes’, and is proud to be associated with such a valued local charity.
