After being on the verge of accepting a six-figure sum last month, a group of 288 former King & Wood Mallesons (KWM) employees have been awarded over £1m by an employment tribunal to settle claims from the collapse of the firm’s European arm.
The ex-staffers received the compensation award this week (20 September) following the failure of KWM to properly engage in a formal redundancy consultation during its much-publicised European insolvency.
