Commercial Litigation

Tim acts for clients on a broad range of commercial disputes and investigations, with particular experience of competition litigation and securities litigation.

Tim advises clients in relation to a wide variety of contractual and tortious disputes.

He has experience of every stage of competition damages litigation, from the inception of proceedings to trial. He has recently acted for DAF Trucks in individual and collective proceedings arising from the infringement decision of the European Commission in July 2016. Those proceedings have helped to shape the law on certification of collective actions, litigation funding and the quantification of damages in cartel claims.

Tim's practice also encompasses securities litigation; by way of recent example, he acted for a former director of Glencore plc in relation to high-profile Commercial Court litigation brought pursuant to s.90 and s.90A of FSMA.

He also has experience of conducting confidential investigations for corporates into alleged or suspected wrongdoing.
