Oliver has a particular interest in the water industry, and more generally in the law relating to utilities and utility assets. He has an understanding of the statutory underpinnings of the utility sector, including detailed knowledge of the legal framework relating to public water and sewerage assets, having worked for almost two years within the in-house legal team of a large water and sewerage undertaker prior to practising at the Bar. He is therefore particularly happy to receive instructions in matters concerning rights and obligations in respect of utility services and assets.
