Practice Areas

Jeffrey Gruder, having graduated at Cambridge with a First Class with Distinction has consistently maintained a high-profile practice during his years at the bar.

He is widely recognised as a leading silk at the Commercial Bar and an experienced commercial arbitrator. He has “A brilliant mind, commercial as well as legal,” as well as being “An extremely able and thorough advocate with an extraordinary knowledge of the law”.

Jeffrey is in the forefront of Covid-19 Business Interruption litigation, having been the successful counsel in Corbin & King v Axa Insurance [2022] EWHC 409 (Comm).

He is ranked in six categories by Legal 500: for his “wealth of experience” in Commercial Litigation and Civil Fraud; “His judgement always being 100%” in Banking and Financial disputes; “A calming and reassuring presence both in hearings and in preparation. He brings unruffled insight to difficult situations” when acting as Counsel in International Arbitrations.

A substantial part of Jeffrey’s practice has always encompassed arbitration and so he has become a sought after and well-regarded arbitrator. Acting independently from his Counsel practice as a part-time arbitrator, he arranges his arbitrations through Arbitrators at 24 Lincoln’s Inn Fields.
