Commercial dispute resolution

The commercial Bar covers a range of areas, including banking, sale of goods and shipping, insolvency, civil fraud, and insurance/reinsurance.

Common

Typically, common law chambers are multidisciplinary and are divided into practice groups so members can develop and maintain specialisations.

Company law

Company law is relevant to almost everything a company does, from filing annual returns to proper procedure in relation to board decisions.

Construction & engineering

When parties from different jurisdictions come into conflict over commercial relationships, they may decide that arbitration is the best method of resolution.

Landlord & tenant/housing

Housing/landlord and tenant law encompasses all aspects of residential and commercial tenancies covering issues like disrepair, human rights and succession.
