Seth Roe

Seth has over 15 years of experience helping media and technology businesses with their HR needs. “I’m passionate about my clients and the businesses they run. I provide practical and effective solutions to the executives, managers, in-house lawyers and HR teams that I work with as well as regularly dealing with complicated employment disputes. I will not stop until I’m confident the best possible result has been achieved. Recent work highlights include successfully defending a number of highly sensitive Employment Tribunal claims related to whistleblowing and discrimination (including achieving sizeable costs awards against the claimants), and strategising and advising on a number of large scale business restructurings. I recently chaired a Film and TV industry working group analysing the developments in holiday pay law and their implications for productions, and regularly deliver workshops and training to clients and industry bodies on a variety of topics, from TUPE to harassment prevention. I previously led our team’s work in relation to HR-related Covid-19 advice during the pandemic which involved advising all our major US studio and SVOD clients in this area.” · Wiggin LLP
