Practice Areas

Peter heads our UK Strategic Contracts group and regularly advises clients on some of their most complex, high value, strategic contracts, frequently with an international angle.

His experience spans advising upon supply chains, procurement, manufacturing, outsourcing, and other high value commercial contracts across a range of sectors including industrials, financial services, transport, manufacturing and waste. He has particular experience of civil aerospace supply chain and maintenance, repair and overhaul arrangements.

Peter invests time to build close relationships with his clients and gain a deep understanding of their business. This allows his advice to add real value in relation to some of the most business critical, strategically important commercial contracts our clients enter into.

Client comments about Peter include:

• Peter is outstanding in his client care. He has assisted on a number of significant matters

for us recently and has devoted his complete attention and care to the task each time.

He has never failed to be available. He is consistent, reliable and I know that he will

always do an excellent job.

• Everyone here really appreciates your style, people find you really easy to

work with, and they trust your counsel. I would go as far as to say it has changed (in

an entirely positive way!) the preconceptions many of the team had about using external

lawyers.

• Peter doesn’t just answer the question given to him but he thinks beyond this and

uses his knowledge to provide valuable advice and challenge us. He thinks strategically and helps to influence the business to consider risks and make informed and rational decisions.
