Fasken Martineau today announced the appointment of Cerys Williams as head of Employment law at the firm's London office. Ms. Williams joins Fasken Martineau from the international law firm, Heller Ehrman, where she established the UK employment practice. Ms. Williams replaces Ruth Hickling, who recently left Fasken Martineau to take up a role at another firm.

Cerys Williams will be providing advice to both domestic clients and the firm's North American clients who have business interests in the UK.

"Cerys's appointment further endorses the principle of the firm to bring in new and exciting talent, especially in essential specialist areas like employment, which will be key to our stability and growth," said Norman Ziman, Regional Managing Partner for Fasken Martineau in London.
