Position
Described by a partner in a Tier 1 Legal 500 firm as “a superstar in the making”, Harry has a busy practice specialising in commercial, corporate and private client disputes both domestically and offshore.
Harry has experience of trial advocacy, interim applications, costs proceedings, appeals and enforcement before all levels of court. Instructing solicitors have described him as “fluent and passionate” in court, and he has been praised for “getting on top of the detail quickly” and for having “excellent and helpful” written work.
On the private client side, Harry has extensive experience of trusts, estates and probate disputes, regularly appearing in the High Court both led and as sole counsel, acting for trustees, executors and beneficiaries alike in complex and high-value litigation. As a supervisor in land law at the University of Cambridge, Harry is also well-equipped to deal with real estate disputes.
On the commercial side, Harry is regularly instructed on commercial disputes across all sectors, and is rapidly developing a specialism in civil fraud and company claims. As a supervisor in company law at the University of Cambridge, and as an editor of the forthcoming edition of a major company law practitioners’ text, Harry is particularly comfortable with shareholder and corporate disputes.
