Mishcon de Reya LLP

Dispute Resolution - Fraud

Oli is a Partner in the Dispute Resolution department. With around 15 years of experience in advising on complex, multi-jurisdictional, and high value disputes, Oli often focuses on civil fraud, investigations, and asset tracing. He is accustomed to applying for and obtaining injunctive relief in order to secure assets for his clients' claims. A significant amount of Oli's work involves disputes conducted either fully or in part outside the UK, including in the Middle East, Asia, Eastern Europe, USA, and common-law offshore financial centres.

Oli's particular strengths lie in finding solutions to difficult factual and technical scenarios. He uses his deep knowledge and expertise of English-law procedure to help his clients gain the tactical advantage in litigation; and has particular expertise in cases involving jurisdictional issues including overlapping arbitrations, and cross-border enforcement. He is quoted in the Legal 500 as "an outstanding solicitor. He is diligent, proactive and resourceful, and his commitment to excellence is unflinching, even in the most complex matters. He consistently seeks to go ‘the extra mile’ for his clients, offering them an unmatchable level of client care".

His practice covers a broad range of litigation, including breach of contract/covenants, misrepresentation/deceit claims, shareholder and partnership disputes, misappropriation of funds, investment and invoicing scams, trust disputes, breach of fiduciary duty claims, data theft, derivative claims, and third-party litigation financing and costs orders. Oli also has experience of appeals, including in the Privy Council.

Whilst Oli's practice is non-sector specific, Oli has a particular interest, and experience, in both the traditional and renewable energy sectors, as well as in helping companies to build and develop their businesses. Oli has also acted for a variety of clients in the digital space, including a leading cryptocurrency trading firm, an NFT studio, and a cryptocurrency-led marketing agency.

Oli's clients also include high net-worth/high-profile individuals; global institutions; engineering and energy companies; and publicly listed companies. He has achieved landmark decisions in three separate areas of law and acted on a number of the largest claims brought before the English Commercial Court at their time.

Oli is the Founder and Chair of the firm's Disability Equity Committee and is heavily involved in the firm's recruitment of Trainee Solicitors.
