Daniel Naftalin
Spear’s Review
Daniel Naftalin, a Mishcon de Reya partner and chair of the firm’s employment department, has advised everyone from FTSE 100 firms, global conglomerates and HNWs to supermodels and football managers. It’s a diverse list, but as the man himself puts it, ‘Variety is the spice of life.’
An expert in restrictive covenants, team transfers, discrimination and whistleblowing cases, Naftalin covers both litigious and non-litigious battles, from disputes in the High Court and employment tribunals to advising on recruitment, termination and competition rules.
Praised for his ‘exceptional’ commercial and legal knowledge, the Boston-born lawyer has litigated several landmark City cases, including Dresdner Kleinwort & Commerzbank AG v Attill & Others & Anar & Others [2013], where he represented 21 bankers claiming unpaid retention bonuses.
