Lyndsey has been practising at the business and property Bar for over 20 years and was appointed QC in February 2018. She is a full-time arbitrator and mediator and her expertise is in business related disputes of all types (including shareholder disputes, joint ventures (in both a corporate and partnership context), breaches of NDAs and SHAs, unfair prejudice, quasi-partnerships, material non-disclosure, misrepresentation, rescission of subscription agreements, forfeiture of leases) with particular experience in insolvency, company and contract related disputes. Lyndsey works both domestically and in offshore jurisdictions (notably the BVI and the DIFC). As a result of over 15 years’ appointment representing the UK government (primarily the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy) for the Attorney General and appointment as standing counsel to the Association of Chartered and Certified Accountants in insolvency matters, she developed a specialisation in a range of work involving public interest aspects, corporate governance, directors’ fiduciary and non-fiduciary duties and responsibilities to shareholders and stakeholders.
