Practice Areas

Nicole Sandells KC is highly regarded for her expertise in complex or law heavy professional negligence and commercial Chancery cases, with a special emphasis on civil fraud, property, trusts and banking/finance. Her broad Chancery background brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to any case. She is well-versed in the complexities of underlying areas, from conveyancing and Land Registration to private client and probate, including Court of Protection. She has significant experience of unjust enrichment, subrogation, and fiduciary duty claims in the professional liability context and more widely.

She is never happier than when finding novel answers to tricky problems. She has enjoyed the opportunity to argue many ground-breaking points in the Court of Appeal throughout her career. She has also enjoyed three successful trips to the Supreme Court. Most recently she was instructed in the Ingenious film-finance litigation, one of the Lawyer’s Top 20 cases of 2022.

Nicole is a master of detail. She finds cross-examination material in accounts, financial papers and insurance documentation that destroys witness credibility – and wins the case. She particularly enjoys the challenge of cross-examining experts. One judge described her as a scrupulously polite but devastatingly effective cross-examiner, and a very persuasive advocate, the kind who does make a difference.

Nicole is popular with clients and has a very approachable style, while being exceptionally bright and a ferocious advocate. She has an enviable ability to convey complex ideas with clarity and conviction and inspires confidence in both judges and clients.
