Samantha Burnett
Sam has specialised in employment law since 2002, having trained and qualified at Eversheds (now Eversheds Sutherland). During her seven years in private practice, she worked on both contentious and non-contentious matters and, as a member of the firm’s professional support lawyer team, drafted the whole range of employment law documentation from precedents and practice notes to policies and training materials. She also wrote regularly for several HR and employment law publications and delivered training.
Overall, Sam has worked for LexisNexis® since March 2009, at times in a freelance capacity, but also for a considerable period as a full member of the team. She re-joined the Employment team in January 2019.
Since 2011, Sam has also worked in local authority schools advising on a host of governance and employment law issues.
