Masters has extensive experience in dealing with legal costs issues arising in numerous jurisdictions, including in relation to significant global litigation spanning multiple territories.

In addition to dealing with the recovery and opposition of significant costs claims in many jurisdictions, Masters advises in relation to costs issues that can arise in substantive litigation, including in relation to the obtaining of security for costs and the provision of expert opinion in relation to English costs law.

Commercial Litigation -  The Commercial Team at Masters provides costs services to a range of top 100 legal firms primarily in the City of London.

We also work on behalf of corporations, financial institutions, public companies and their lawyers, dealing with the costs arising from a variety of commercial litigation including intellectual property, construction, tax and employment law and international arbitration.

Media Litigation - The Media Team deals with heavyweight defamation and privacy media litigation concerning highly sensitive and confidential matters where costs are important and contentious.

We are regularly instructed to deal with the costs arising from litigation relating to public figures and in high profile cases where the quality of services and confidentiality of instructions are paramount.
