Described as “an absolute superstar” by the Legal 500 UK, Samantha joined the firm nine years ago. Since then, Samantha has built her practice focusing on advising private and NHS executives and consultants from leading hospitals on whistleblowing and discrimination claims, raising grievances, bullying, harassment and contractual claims. Samantha also acts for clients across a broad range of sectors including financial services, particularly in relation to sex and disability discrimination and whistleblowing claims. She is also an experienced employment litigator.

BDBF has been top ranked by the leading independent directories for acting for senior executives for the last 12 years consecutively. BDBF also has a growing practice acting for partners and employers on their high stakes and high value employment work.

Gareth Brahams, Managing Partner of BDBF said, “We are delighted to announce Samantha’s well-deserved promotion. It is especially pleasing to advance and reward internal talent – it is this talent which cements BDBF’s position as a leader in its field and makes it an inspiring place to work.

We are proud to have supported her journey to Partner.
