My practice has more recently concentrated on IT disputes for both end users and suppliers, large and complex litigation and arbitration. My earlier years were almost exclusively in the shipping and international trade area, resulting in my gaining a good understanding of contract and tort disputes in an insurance context and conflict of laws.

Fellow of Chartered Institute of Arbitrators (FCIArb)

I am a member of the Society for Computers and Law (SCL), the London Court of International Arbitration and the London Maritime Arbitrators' Association (LMAA)

Away from the office, my four children keep me very busy and I follow their progress with varying degrees of satisfaction and alarm.  When I do have some spare time I am an avid sports fan and enjoy most sports especially sailing, cricket, rugby and cycling.
