Adv Carmine Conte > Chambers of Tom Weisselberg KC and Jane Mulcahy KC > London, England > Barrister Profile

‘A go-to set for commercial disputes‘, Blackstone Chambers‘ litigators are routinely able to leverage the set’s notable credentials in financial services, City regulation and civil fraud. In an approximately $120m contractual dispute claim involving the use of the Virgin name, recently-elected joint chambers’ head Tom Weisselberg KC acted for Alaska Airways; and in Deposit Guarantee Fund of Ukraine v Bank Frick & anor, Luka Krsljanin, led by Andreas Gledhill KC, succeeded in striking out a claim, which was brought by a Ukrainian liquidator to set aside tens of millions of pounds in payments allegedly made by fraudsters to defendant banks, as a misuse of the Insolvency Act 1986’s section 423 procedure. Adam Baradon KC, who recently led Carmine Conte in a $3bn trial over assets in India, took silk in March 2023.
