Dentons

Litigation and Arbitration

Felicity is the co-head of Dentons UK Core Disputes practice which includes financial and commercial litigation.  Alongside litigation expertise, the group offers strategic risk management advice and investigations skills.  The group is particularly known for its strength in the financial services sector, having represented clients on a number of leading cases in the period since the last financial crisis.

The focus of Felicity's own practice is complex, strategic or high-value disputes, often for financial services clients and involving regulatory issues, but also across other sectors including energy, transport and infrastructure.  She has represented clients in capital markets, PFI, and derivatives litigation; on mis-selling claims; group claims; and in M&A disputes.  Clients value the strategic insight Felicity provides and her role regularly involves advising clients at executive level, including pre-litigation and on litigation risk arising in transactions.

Felicity has spent time on secondment to the litigation and regulatory teams of major banking clients, including at partner level.  She is experienced in proceedings in the High Court and the Court of Appeal and has significant mediation expertise.
