He has experience of substantial, complex and high-value litigation in the High Court and the Court of Appeal. He also has wide experience in the county courts and in injunction applications. His work is often court-based where he is recognised in the directories as ‘brilliant, the hardest-working counsel I have seen’. He regularly advises companies, partnerships, charities, trusts, and individuals. He worked in the investment banking industry for 15 years before coming to the bar and so has a particular interest and strength in company, investment, valuation and general financial services related matters.
