Position
Rupert enjoys a varied practice covering all aspects of commercial law. He has experience across Chambers’ key areas of expertise, including in particular shipping and international trade, arbitration, company and insolvency disputes, and private international law.
He is regularly instructed to advise and to represent parties both in litigation and in arbitration proceedings. While Rupert is frequently led by silks and senior juniors on high-value, complex cases, he is also often instructed as sole counsel and has appeared unled both in the Commercial Court and in the Court of Appeal, as well as in matters before the Insolvency and Companies Court.
Rupert prides himself on being responsive to clients’ needs and on being a team player who is ready to roll his sleeves up and get stuck in. He goes out of his way to make himself available for clients and ensure that their expectations can be met.
Before coming to the Bar, Rupert read science at university and then spent three years working in investment banking as a corporate finance analyst. He is good with figures and also with difficult technical or scientific issues and he particularly enjoys dealing with expert evidence, while his expertise with Excel regularly proves invaluable on cases.
