Dispute Resolution: Commercial - UK

Star Individuals
Strengths

He is very well regarded. He is one of those hard-working silks who gets into the detail and delivers the submission with a lot of conviction.

I can't speak more highly of him. He is the best commercial silk in the country. He is brought in for bet the company, big ticket litigation.

Laurence Rabinowitz is the best of the best because of his command of the court. He is a very softly spoken advocate, yet you can hear a pin drop because he has such a command of the court.

Always a pleasure to work with, he is clever and insightful.
