What the Team is Known For

The firm's employment team handles unfair dismissal claims, employment-related personal injury matters, cases against former directors and officers for breach of employment covenants, and related contentious employment matters.
Strengths
Commercial and clear advice is given in relation to the merits and commercial reality of a claim in the Isle of Man courts.
The legal advice I receive is pragmatic and sensible.
Work Highlights
MannBenham Advocates represented Hillberry Trust Company in a long-running case against its former directors for breach of employment covenants. The claim concerned allegations that former directors had taken confidential company information and tried to persuade clients to move to competitor firms.
Notable practitioners
