Quadrant Chambers continues to act on some of the highest-profile shipping cases in the market, with its silks and juniors handling the full range of shipping litigation. A highlight of the year was the firm's involvement in matters before the Supreme Court. Simon Rainey QC and Nigel Jacobs QC successfully represented the appellants in Evergreen Marine v Nautical Challenge, the first collision case to reach the highest court in almost half a century, and in July 2021 John Russell QC and Benjamin Coffer appeared before the same court in Alize 1954 v Allianz Elementar Versicherungs AG (The “CMA CGM LIBRA”), a matter concerning if deficiencies in a route determined prior to departure rendered a ship unseaworthy. Rainey will also appear before the Court of Appeals in October in Priminds Shipping v K Line Ltd, with Tom Bird also involved in this much-discussed case concerning if a shipowner can claim for damages in addition to demurrage if a charterer fails to load and discharge the vessel within the agreed laytime. Other juniors to note include Koye Akoni, who continues to act for clients in the Admiralty and Commercial Courts as well as in arbitration, and Ben Gardner, who handles a varied caseload including matters involving cargo misdelivery, ship arrests, and groundings. The set's strong bench of QCs was boosted in 2021 as Nichola Warrender QC took silk.
