Hay & Kilner’s ‘standout’ commercial litigation team has a solid track record advising on cases before the business, property, and technology courts. Practice head Tom Whitfield attracts praise for his strength across the full range of insurance and professional negligence disputes; under his leadership, the team has also recently seen an uptick in instructions related to shareholder and insurance disputes. Adam Chaffer offers expertise in construction disputes, while the ‘excellent’ Bethany Herbertson is also recommended for trademark infringement claims. Lucy Gray left the team to go in-house in May 2023.
