Caro has a special interest and strong background in Human Rights issues that arise in Employment. In addition to her specialist employment law experience, Caro has a wealth of civil litigation and family law experience which means she is able to see the broader business and personal implications of employment related matters and also is able to progress matters through litigation if early resolution is unable to be achieved.

Outside of the Firm, Caro spends time with her husband and three children.  If there is time between her passion for employment law and her family, Caro loves pouring over interior design magazines, recipe books and even better if it can be over brunch at a café.
