Rachel Hill is a Partner heading up our Employment practice advising on all aspects of employment law. A UK qualified lawyer, Rachel has over 16 years’ experience in both litigation and employment and has spent the last 12 years in the Middle East providing strategic advice to employers on all aspects of employment law and immigration procedures.

Rachel holds extensive experience in, and understanding of, the local UAE Court system and has developed an integral understanding of the procedural requirements of filing litigation before the Dubai Labour Courts – a unique capability for a non-Arab native.

Rachel also has experience of the Common Law Courts of both the DIFC and the ADGM and regularly advises on a broad range of employment issues arising within the DIFC and ADGM.

She advises multinationals, locally-based UAE companies and organisations, government entities, financial institutions and international law firms.
