“I enjoy working closely with overseas clients who may not be familiar with the arbitration or English litigation processes” 

"I enjoy working closely with overseas clients who may not be familiar with the arbitration or English litigation processes in order to provide them with timely, pragmatic, and actionable advice.

When approaching new client relationships, I always seek to understand the client’s needs and provide them with prompt and regular updates as the matter progresses.

As a solicitor advocate, I have full rights of audience in civil proceedings before the English Courts, and enjoy undertaking my own advocacy in arbitration matters.”

Fred’s recent work highlights:

Acting for an ultra-high-net-worth businessman and successfully resisting a US $500million jurisdiction and freezing injunction claim by the liquidators of a major bank.   

Acting for an overseas bank in claims and counterclaims worth US $490million relating to certain loans and guarantees.  

Acting for a FTSE 100 company in a dispute with a US investment bank arising from a US $1billion margin call.
