Practice Areas

David Craig KC’s practice encompasses large-scale multi-week litigation (often with an international/multi-jurisdictional dimension), urgent injunctive relief and appellate work, principally founded on disputes arising in the context of employment, partnership and LLP membership. David is generally instructed in high profile and heavyweight cases in the High Court, frequently involving conspiracy and economic torts, unlawful competition, team moves, the protection of confidential information, post-termination restraints, wrongful termination/expulsion, carried interest and bonus disputes, as well as claims arising in a regulatory context which raise important reputational issues, and whistleblowing and discrimination claims in the Employment Tribunal. He is often instructed by clients in the financial services sector (including investment banks, inter-dealer brokers, hedge funds, and individual employees in those sectors), but his client base is wide and includes insurers/insurance brokers, PR firms, professionals, and music and publishing businesses. Variously described as “phenomenal in everything he does”, “absolutely top-notch”, “exceptional”. “Renowned for his grasp of employment law and brilliance in the courtroom. He handles a variety of issues, including injunctive relief, team moves, restrictive covenants and dismissals. Reassuring for witnesses, great with clients and really clever. Just brilliant in terms of reactivity and willingness to get involved. He is a real team player.”
