Position

Philip maintains a broad practice encompassing shipping, insurance, civil fraud, and general commercial litigation. He has appeared as sole counsel in the Commercial Court and County Court, as well as being led in the Commercial Court and in arbitration. Current or recent instructions include a US$200m+ shipbuilding arbitration, a US$100m LCIA arbitration arising out of the repudiation of a coal offtake agreement, and a Bermuda Form arbitration arising out of extensive criminal wrongdoing in a prominent US religious organisation, as well as acting as sole counsel in several substantial LMAA shipping disputes. Most recently, Philip has also been extensively involved in advising on the impact, principally in the (re)insurance context, of the sanctions imposed in response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Philip is happy to accept instructions, on his own or led, in any commercial dispute.
