The specialist trade global practice group at Clyde & Co, which focuses entirely on the trade and commodities market, is led from London by Marko Kraljevic, who has a well-established investor-focused investment disputes practice. The ‘technically brilliant, very practical and pragmatic’ Hatty Sumption has an in-depth understanding of how commodity traders operate on disputes concerning oil, coal and metals, biofuels, grains and fertilisers, as well as related charterparty, bill of lading, letter of credit and ship sale, alongside purchase matters. John Whittaker frequently acts for the world’s largest commodity and natural resources companies, and recently assisted ED&F Man Capital Markets with a $300m case arising from a substantial fraud involving repo transactions. Eurof Lloyd-Lewis specialises in commodities, international trade, dry shipping, offshore and commercial litigation. ’Seasoned partner’ Will Trustram in the energy, marine and natural resources group is also heavily involved in contentious commodities matters. Tara Smith sits on the executive committee of the International Steel Trade Association and also plays a key role in the practice.
Legal 500 Editorial commentary
Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
‘Strong capabilities and legal and technical knowledge on both the shipping and commodities side, which is invaluable when claims cut across both practice areas (as is almost always the case for us). Work is always turned around within the necessary timescales, even when extremely urgent, and I know the team are always available if I need them.'
- 'Advice is cogent, well-written, and structured in a way that gets straight to the point and allows me to quickly put it into a form I can share with non-lawyer colleagues, whilst also "showing the working" and providing the detailed legal analysis. It's very obvious that the quality of legal research and accompanying analysis is exceptionally high from the team.'
