Individual Editorial

David Scannell KC has a strong profile in competition work arising in the pharmaceutical industry, often with an overlap to intellectual property law. He is instructed to act on both regulatory appeals and follow-on claims, including the 'pay for delay' cases.

Strengths

David is a fierce and fearless advocate. He's incredibly hard-working and approachable, and he wins the most complex cases.

He is one of the most knowledgeable competition silks when it comes to EU law, and he is unflappable under pressure.

David is intellectually extremely strong. You can see this in how he presents the case: he threads the needle extremely effectively. He's an extremely persuasive, eloquent and effective advocate.

The speed with which he grasps the complex facts is impressive, his drafting is crisp and powerful, and his advice on strategy is succinct and commercial.
