Position
Will specialises is commercial law, insurance law, and civil fraud. His experience spans a number of industry sectors both domestically and internationally: manufacturing and logistics, technology, energy, insurance and reinsurance, construction and development, financial services, and sport.
Will’s commercial practice deals with a wide range of litigation and arbitration (increasingly with international and cross border elements) concerning general commercial and contractual disputes, director / shareholder (including s.994 petitions) and partner disputes, employment disputes (particularly restrictive covenants and misappropriation of confidential information), professional negligence and sports disputes.
Will’s insurance practice is split equally between advising and acting in subrogated recovery claims, and advising and acting on issues of coverage, joint insurance, contribution and non-disclosure.
Across both his commercial and insurance practices, Will is highly sought after by clients for claims containing allegations of fraud and where applications for urgent injunctive relief are required to be made / resisted including applications for freezing orders (domestic and worldwide); search orders; imaging orders; prohibitory and springboard injunctions; and Norwich Pharmacal orders.
In addition, Will has a specialist and thriving sports law practice, and is one of the few individual barristers regularly instructed by major UK and international sports governing bodies on a variety of high-profile matters across a number of different sports including motorsports, football, rugby, and cricket.
