Three new appointments have joined Morrish Solicitors in Leeds.
The additions of Asifa Rehman and Jamie Jaskolka bolster Morrish’s fast-growing employment team, which works with 30 trade union and associations as well as private clients nationally.
Rehman has worked in-house for Network Rail and Sainsburys, where she advised on employment and HR matters. She joined Morrish last month as an employment solicitor.
During her career, Rehman has specialised in employment law cases, including assisting in securing a large settlement against a FTSE 500 company for race and sex discrimination.
Jaskolka has also joined the employment team. He graduated from Coventry University in 2021 and subsequently worked as a court usher in York while volunteering as witness support at the Leeds Magistrates Court.
Prior to joining Morrish, Jaskolka worked as a legal assistant in wills and probate at Oakwood Solicitors.
The third new appointment at Morrish, Jamie Wallace, joins as IT manager. Wallace previously worked at BW Legal, where he was IT operations manager.
David Sorensen, managing partner at Morrish, commented: “The partners and I are delighted to welcome Asifa and Jamie to our ever-expanding employment team.
“Both will be invaluable to the firm as we continue to grow and develop our work, including new relationships with unions and associations around the country, and delivering exceptional service to our clients.
“We are also very pleased to be welcoming Jamie Wallace as our new IT manager. As a firm we are proud of our strong track record in cyber security, our eagerness to adopt new technologies, and giving our teams the tools to provide the best service possible.
“This is an exciting time for Jamie to join us as we invest in our IT and make great advances in the firm’s IT infrastructure and technology.”
