Professional Experience
I have extensive experience before all Courts and a wide range of Tribunals and other bodies. Since commencing practice as a Barrister in 1991, I have specialized in general civil commercial advice and dispute resolution and appeared principally in the High Court and Court of Appeal.
My specialist expertise in civil commercial advice and dispute resolution includes litigation, mediation, arbitration and negotiation and involves a wide range of legal areas including:
- Administrative Law
- Land and Survey Law
- Construction Law
- Intellectual Property
- Contract and Tort
- Company Law and Trusts
- Insurance Law
- Statutory Management and Liquidation
- Sports and Charitable Trusts
I have been retained as lead counsel in a number of cases involving novel questions of law, some of which are leading cases in their field. I have also been retained in cases in Australia and the Cook Islands.
Examples of significant cases in which I have been retained are contained in my full curriculum vitae which is available on request.
