Natural justice and the high cost of getting it wrong

A specialist in contentious partnership, employment, and discrimination law, Fox & Partners’ Catriona Watt explains why due process is particularly important in senior-level terminations and how getting it wrong can have significant consequences. Watt also reflects on her experience working on both sides of disputes, including lessons from emotive cross-border litigation and representing law firms and partners.  In a wide-ranging conversation, she further explores the challenges of team moves amid increasingly aggressive hiring practices, the growing importance of non-financial misconduct in financial services, when employers should consider arbitration or mediation, and what happens when PR considerations and legal advice point in different directions?
