Position

Rob’s practice centres on commercial disputes and civil fraud, alongside insolvency and construction work. Regularly instructed as part of a counsel team, he also frequently appears unled in the High Court.

Rob is a contributor to both Construction Professional Indemnity Insurance (Sweet & Maxwell) and Insurance Broking Practice and the Law (Informa) and is a member of the Government Legal Department’s Junior Junior panel.

Rob previously worked at the Serious Fraud Office on the cross-border investigation of a former FTSE 100 company, and on the SFO v ENRC [2018] EWCA Civ. 2006 privilege litigation. He then worked in the London disputes practice of a directory-ranked US law firm. He therefore understands his clients’ needs, and has experience beyond his call, in civil fraud, general commercial disputes and investigations.
