Position

Rob is a partner in our dispute management department, specialising in property litigation. He provides property litigation assistance to a diverse range of commercial and individual clients and specialises in advising property and real estate investors, retail and restaurants, financial institutions and regeneration bodies. However, he would prefer that disputes do not develop. As such, his priority is always to offer early advice and assistance to help and avoid the potential dispute. If a dispute does develop he will work hard to resolve your dispute as soon as is possible using his extensive property litigation experience including substantial experience in mediation, negotiation and arbitration. He will always provide you with clear and decisive advice and if, as a last resort, court action is required he will be tough and assertive in representing your interests.
