Mr Mayberry, who was previously at Shoosmiths, is accredited by the Law Society of Scotland as a specialist in employment law.
He has worked in a variety of industries, with a large number of clients in hospitality, charities, sports and manufacturing. His experience extends to all types of claims in the Employment Tribunal, along with defending claims in the Employment Appeal Tribunal and Court of Appeal.
