Aaron & Partners strengthens international operation with key appointments

Top legal practice Aaron & Partners has added to its new international department with the appointment of two new employment law Partners.

Ikram Malik joins the firm as a specialist in Business Immigration law with more than 14 years’ experience. His appointment will support clients that recruit overseas workers, with Ikram bringing a strong understanding of the complexities of corporate immigration and sponsor licence applications to the firm.

His specialist knowledge will see him play a leading role in Aaron’s International – the law firm’s recently launched department designed to help businesses and private clients manage the Brexit transition.

Joining Ikram is Partner Adam Haines, an experienced employment law Solicitor who is returning to the firm after working at top Manchester legal practice, Knights plc.

Adam has extensive experience in the private sector and has advised businesses of all sizes, handling many high-value and complex claims. He will now be based out of the firm’s Manchester office following increased demand from clients in the area.

Helen Watson, Partner and Head of Employment Law at Aaron & Partners said: “With the end of the Brexit transition period fast approaching, and the coronavirus pandemic still impacting all aspects of employment law, we identified a need for the specialist services that both Ikram and Adam can provide to clients.

“Ikram’s appointment is significant for Aaron & Partners and his extensive knowledge of Business Immigration law will be a huge asset to us, further strengthening the internationally-focused employment services we can offer to our clients.

“It’s also a pleasure to welcome Adam back to the team and his wide-ranging experience will, without doubt, boost our employment team in Manchester. His appointment reflects the increasing demand we are seeing from commercial clients in the region.

“Both Ikram and Adam are high calibre additions to the team and will ensure we can continue to provide the expert support our clients require during this challenging period.”
