Keystone Law is delighted to announce the addition of Emma Loveday-Hill as a partner to its employment team. Emma will collaborate with Kelly Sayers, Keystone Law’s established Employment partner, who advises employers on all HR and people-related matters.

Emma is a seasoned employment law expert with an impressive data protection and privacy background. Her expertise includes advising clients on privacy policies, legislative compliance, data subject rights, managing data breaches, and navigating international data transfers.

Together, Kelly and Emma bring over 30 years of experience in providing legal counsel to companies in the transport and logistics sector. Their deep understanding of the industry and pragmatic approach make them invaluable partners to their clients.

Danny Salt, Finance Director at Hemisphere Freight Services Ltd, shared his experience working with Kelly and Emma, “I’ve worked with Kelly and Emma for a number of years. They know what we’re trying to achieve and will always find a solution to help us achieve it. They’re very pragmatic and have a wealth of experience, meaning they can easily navigate even the most difficult issues.”

Simon Fraser, Managing Director at Lombard Shipping Plc, echoed this sentiment, “They’re down to earth and easy to work with. They understand the challenges we face as a business, particularly within the logistics sector, and they give you the confidence to move forward regardless of the situation. They are absolutely the people you’d want in your corner to help you through any tricky employment law situation – they’re a formidable team.”

Kelly regularly contributes to Porttalk and is an active member of the Felixstowe Port Users’ Association, keeping the membership updated with insightful presentations on employment and HR-related topics. This will continue with Emma’s additional support, which is especially timely given the significant employment law changes on the horizon.
