Katie Bullimore

What I do

 I qualified as a solicitor in November 2023 and joined the Employment Department after completing my training contract with the firm.

I provide advice to employees on a wide range of topics including, but not limited to, the following:

  • Settlement Agreements 
  • Drafting or Reviewing Contracts 
  • Unfair Dismissal claims
  • Discrimination claims 
  • Redundancy 
  • Restrictive Covenants 
  • Internal proceedings (such as grievances or disciplinaries). 

I also assist the Head of Department, James Johnson, with employer related matters.

A positive attitude, and sometimes cake!

Outside of work I spend most of my time with my fiancé Jack and our labrador puppy, Penny.

I am a leader at a local girl-guiding group, which I attend every week.

I dealt with James and Katie, and all I can say is incredible service. Timely, friendly and efficient. I was kept in the loop at all stages and would not hesitate to recommend Smiths Partnership.

I was recently made redundant and used Katie Bullimore to help with the terms of the settlement agreement. She was very helpful throughout and explained everything to me. I found her to be very friendly and efficient. She answered all queries and questions that I had and I wouldn't hesitate to use her services again.

I am leaving my employment on good terms but needed legal advice to complete a Settlement Agreement. I contacted Smith Partnership who were helpful from the start first dealing with Judith Bull who set up the meeting, checks and dealt with documentation requirements and Katie Bullimore (Solicitor) who dealt with the agreement. This was all done swiftly and is now all signed and agreed between all parties. I would recommend using this company based on my experience so far.

Needed a solicitor to deal with a Settlement Agreement. First one contacted could not help. The second promised to get back to me within 24 hours but failed to do so. I contacted Smith Partnership and the solicitor assigned, Katie Bullimore, provided a prompt and professional service. She was very thorough in going through the lengthy document point by point, and brought about a satisfactory conclusion.

I have recently worked with Katie Bullimore to get an legally binding agreement finalised. Katie explained everything to me and highlighted several T&Cs that would have gone unnoticed due to naivety. She handled the process quickly and efficiently and the whole matter was finalised within a week. I am very grateful for her support on this matter.
