Managing Partner – Edward Aston

Employment Law Background and Experience

Edward has a unique background, having gained a 2:1 (hons) degree in Business Studies with Law at Salford University, followed by a diploma in Legal Studes at Birmingham University. His initial studies then culminated in a postgraduate diploma in Legal Practice at the College of Law.

The first working legal post he had was at a regional heavyweight law firm, after which he joined Astons.
Edward was admitted as a solicitor in 2005 and became a Partner later that year. In 2010 he added to his qualifications by completing a Masters course in Employment Law at the University of Surrey.

Now Edward has significant experience in advising both business clients and private individuals on all aspects of employment law. He has advised on both contentious and non-contentious matters, but has significant experience in employee rights within the workplace, dismissal, redundancy, discrimination, maternity, settlement agreements etc., as well as acting for employee clients in employment tribunals across the UK.

Why work with Edward?

Edward’s understanding of the complexities of both business and employment law enables him to put a client’s workplace problems in context. If you need practical, pragmatic advice on a complicated employment issue, Edward is the person to speak to.

The personal touch

Outside of work, Edward enjoys playing and watching most sports. And, for his sins, he is a Leicester City supporter… But don’t let that put you off!

Highly Recommended

Lorraine Emery acted as my solicitor on a Settlement Agreement with my employer. Both Lorraine and her secretary Gayna were extremely professional and ensured that the process moved along as quickly and smoothly as possible. The team at Aston's also have a very approachable manner which was much appreciated as it was my first time going through a redundancy process. Highly recommended.
