Career
Barnaby Stueck’s practice is concentrated on multijurisdictional commercial litigation and arbitration, with particular emphasis on complex fraud, asset tracing, contentious insolvency and investment fund disputes. He regularly obtains and defends injunctive relief on behalf of clients, including freezing and search and seize orders. He also co-leads the Firm’s Offshore Disputes team, and the majority of his cases involve proceedings in multiple jurisdictions, from the Caribbean and Channel Islands to Switzerland, UAE and the Balkan States. His clients are predominantly fund managers and investors, corporates, UHNWIs and insolvency practitioners. His recent caseload has involved acting for an oil trading company in USD 300 million proceedings against former directors for unlawful means conspiracy, acting for Project T0day in its defence of high-profile proceedings and search orders brought by Ocado; and acting for a major creditor of the Abraaj private equity group in relation to complex, cross-border claims in the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands against former Abraaj entities.
