Dan Brooks

Dan Brooks

Dan Brooks jointly leads the Wynterhill team with Stuart Hill.  He is passionate about resolving his clients’ commercial disputes and all things related to insurance law, the London Market and dispute resolution generally.  Over the last 15 years, he has built a strong reputation for resolving complex coverage disputes for policyholders across a broad spectrum of sectors and product lines, with a particular focus on Construction Risks, Professional Indemnity and Property Damage & Business Interruption claims (including claims where dishonesty or fraud is alleged).  He frequently advises on related professional negligence matters which have an insurance twist.  Where possible he seeks to resolve unwanted commercial disputes quickly and knows how and when a claim can be settled on best possible terms, alternatively understands when to roll up his sleeves to litigate or arbitrate to get the desired result for his clients. His clients describe him as tenacious, tough and commercially astute.
