Barry Isaacs KC has extensive experience in offshore insolvency, banking litigation and corporate company disputes. He continues to be instructed in the Cayman Islands and Bermuda in particular.
Strengths
Barry's advocacy is strong because he makes the complex readily digestible and understandable. He is trusted by the Bench and he's an advocate of integrity. When he stands up, people listen.
He's the best that I've come across in complex financial and valuation issues. He's fantastic in his cross-examination. I think everyone probably comes away thinking he's more expert than the expert.
Barry’s ability to get to the crux of the matter and address it is phenomenal.
