Legal Expertise

I have a thriving commercial / chancery practice. Expertise includes:

  • Regulatory and professional negligence
  • Commercial disputes
  • General chancery work
  • Dispute Resolution / Arbitration / Mediation
  • Direct access

In Silk I have been leading counsel in multi-million pound litigation, successfully defending allegations of commercial fraud arising from the collapse of the Versailles Group. I have also been involved in long-running group litigation involving leaseholders in disputes with their landlord; a case of factual and substantial legal complexity.

As junior counsel, I was counsel of choice for the Solicitors Indemnity Fund (western region) and have extensive experience in professional negligence issues, especially relating to property conveyancing matters.

Recently I have been leading counsel in a series of judicial review cases against HMRC, successfully challenging its use (or misuse) of its statutory powers. I also become an acknowledged leader in Proceeds of Crime Act challenges based upon article 1, first Protocol ECHR, lately overturning the long established rule of the common law that a Receiver can always recover his costs from assets subject to the receivership.

I have extensive sports law experience and is an Arbitrator at the International Court of Arbitration for Sport in Switzerland.

I have extensive experience of human rights and discrimination issues associated with my work in the Immigration Appeals Tribunal and The Asylum and Immigration Tribunal.

I have pursued a substantial chancery, commercial and professional negligence practice over many years and have specialised in these fields for over 25 years.
