On Thursday 16 November 2023 Asma Iqbal will be telling her story.

Asma is a partner and head of Corporate Recovery and Insolvency Department at Chadwick Lawrence LLP. This area of practice includes advising business, directors and insolvency practitioners in corporate pre-insolvency and insolvency situations.

During 2020-2021, Asma represented Yorkshire cricketer Azeem Refiq in his claim on institutional racism against Yorkshire County Cricket Club (YCCC) and supported by Chadwick Lawrence’s employment team, securing a settlement in his subsequent employment tribunal.

She has now taken on a proactive role to tackle racism and promote inclusion, diversity and equality, working with institutions to audit their practices, procedures and behaviours to help them implement meaningful and lasting change.

She is a STRIVE role model, undertaking work that has a positive impact on society.
