Richard Salter KC

Position

Richard Salter is regarded as one of the leading commercial silks at the bar. Richard’s practice covers all aspects of commercial litigation and arbitration, including civil fraud.  He is equally at home making legal submissions before the highest courts as he is conducting long, fact-heavy trials and arbitrations, with a particular speciality in matters relating to banking, corporate finance, financial services and insolvency, where he has a pre-eminent reputation both in court and in non-contentious advisory matters. In addition to his extensive high-profile work in London, Richard’s practice has taken him all over the world.  He is a member of the Bar of the Eastern Caribbean Supreme Court and has appeared several times in the Commercial Court of the British Virgin Islands. He has been admitted pro hac vice for cases in the Bahamas (before the High Court and the Court of the Appeal), in the Cayman Islands (before the Grand Court and the Court of Appeal) and in the Isle of Man (before the High Court and the Staff of Government Division). He has also been involved in substantial advisory and litigious matters (both assisting local lawyers in court and appearing himself before arbitral tribunals) in India, Hong Kong, Singapore and other common-law jurisdictions. Richard has also been involved in proceedings at the DIFC.
