Position

Stuart’s practice is a blend of property and commercial Chancery work. He has particular expertise in property and landlord and tenant matters (see for example the recent and widely commented on case of Re The Cotswold Company concerning surrenders and CVAs and the important decision of Lewison J in Paddington Basin v West End Quay concerning qualifying long-term agreements) and large dilapidations claims (such as Lyndendown v Vitamol in the Court of Appeal and Bruntwood v British Telecom). Stuart also has a reputation for property/mortgage-related professional negligence such as Vision Golf v Weightmans (acting on behalf of the successful claimant). He has substantial experience in cases of high value and complexity involving company and insolvency matters and cases concerning breach of fiduciary duties and breach of confidence (see for example the recent case 4Eng v Harper concerning liability under s423 IA 1986). He regularly acts for plcs, pension funds and local authorities. Stuart regularly provides lectures and seminars. A fuller CV is available on his chambers web site.
