Wyn Lewis

Spear’s Review

Wyn Lewis’s broad practice covers contentious and non-contentious aspects of employment law, which has won him HNW clients from the financial, legal, concierge, recruitment, media and retail industries.

At Gunnercooke, he advises senior executives and NGOs on UK and international employment issues, but considers himself to be more of ‘a businessperson who works with the law than a lawyer that tries to apply the law to business’. 

Lewis also runs a coaching business, and said clients like the fact that he owns a business outside his solicitor’s practice. ‘It gives me an inside advantage over someone who has only ever provided legal services. The advice I give tends to be corporate and strategic, but within a legal framework,’ he explained.

Lewis, who has nearly 40 years of experience, knew he’d become a trusted adviser when he realised that he no longer needed to advertise. ‘As I get older, my clients get younger – I’m like a corporate uncle,’ he joked.
