Partner

Adam has over 20 years' experience in all aspects of non-contentious and contentious pensions law. Adam's clients are trustees, employers, actuaries, benefit consultants, senior executives and IFAs. He has a particular interest in helping employers of all sizes reduce their pensions liabilities and risks through pension scheme closures, member option exercises and partial or total buyouts of pension benefits. On the contentious side Adam advises trustees, employers and benefit consultancies on professional negligence claims, typically around errors in scheme drafting and the equalisation of normal retirement ages for men and women, and on Part 8 claims for the rectification or interpretation of scheme documents. As a trusted advisor in his field, he has been recognised in the Chambers directory as being ‘able to understand the issues in an instant’, ‘extremely knowledgeable’ and ‘appreciated for his communication skills’.
