Gavin Booth

Mr Booth, who was head of employment at the firm, had a career spanning three decades.

Donna-Marie Gray, founder of the firm, said: “In addition to fighting for justice on behalf of our clients, Gavin also helped many thousands of people through his own company, The Law At Work. Gavin was a passionate believer in access to justice for working class people and he was quick to call out injustice wherever it lurked.”

She added: “Gavin did not possess a law degree, but this did not stop him and he went on to become an exceptional legal representative. He was well known in the Glasgow Employment Tribunal, as well as other tribunals in England and Wales. He travelled the length and breadth of the country to help people in need.”

He is survived by his wife Anne, daughters Gemma and Nicola and his grandchildren.

Funeral arrangements are as follows: Tuesday 8 March at Castlecary Hotel, 12pm; Eastfield Cemetery and then back to Castlecary Hotel.
