Practice Areas

Sebastian is a leading practitioner specialising in complex and high value commercial disputes, in both litigation and international arbitration. Seb is particularly noted for his user friendly and commercially minded approach, and for his command of the courtroom as a cross-examiner and oral advocate.

Recent example cases include: acting for Credit Suisse Life in the Bermuda Court of Appeal defending claims by the Georgian billionaire Bidzina Ivanishvili; representing the defendants in the high value fraud claim between Otkritie Bank and the owners of the O1 Property Group; appearing in ICC arbitration for a Dutch infrastructure investment company in a dispute with its joint venture partner in a deep water grain terminal on the Russian Black Sea coast; acting for the shareholders of the failed Real Estate Investment Trust, Home REIT; and representing an online NFT auction house in a dispute with a high-value bidder. Seb also represented the Ukrainian billionaire Victor Pinchuk in his very high value LCIA Arbitration and High Court claims against Igor Kolomoisky and Gennadiy Bogolyubov, both of which were pursued successfully to settlement during and just before the final hearings.

Main areas of practice include energy, commodities, banking and finance, civil fraud, and professional negligence.
