• Partner / Head of UK Commercial Litigation

  • Feb 2021 - Present

  I am an experienced commercial litigation/dispute resolution lawyer with more than 25 years of experience and I lead the firm’s UK commercial litigation practice area. I advise on a wide range of contentious matters, including in the pharmaceutical/life sciences, manufacturing, natural resources and property sectors. I deal with contractual, company and shareholder disputes, as well as regulatory issues (for example, matters concerning the U.K.’s Pharmaceutical Price Regulation Schemes and advertising). I act for clients from the U.K. and overseas, and much of my work has a multi-jurisdictional aspect. I have advised on a range of insolvency issues and act for creditors, debtors and office holders, and I am also concerned with the protection and management of corporate and individual reputations, particularly through the law of defamation, privacy and data protection. My experience covers the full extent of the litigation process, from risk management and pre-action advice through to obtaining and resisting interim orders, trial, proceedings in the appellate courts and enforcement, as well as significant involvement in international arbitration and alternative dispute resolution (ADR) processes, including mediation and expert determination both as party adviser and as counsel to the expert.
