Tim Lord KC

Tim Lord KC took Silk after 16 years at the Bar, on the strength of a broad commercial practice taking in not only general commercial litigation and banking and finance but also civil fraud, energy, insurance and reinsurance, professional negligence, conflict of laws, TMT and arbitration. Having taken a First in Law at Cambridge, his experience of playing first class rugby and cricket has stood him in good stead for both the adversarial aspects of litigation and the crucial need for teamwork. Tim’s reputation as an accomplished cross-examiner and trial Silk means that he is regularly brought in to head up heavyweight disputes, leading a large team. Tim has a truly international practice, with particular experience of disputes arising out of Russia, the Far East, India and the Middle East. Tim undertakes work in foreign and offshore jurisdictions where he has rights of audience before the local courts, as well as before international arbitral tribunals. He was Chambers & Partners’ Commercial Litigation Silk of the Year 2013 and again in 2018, and their Banking & Finance Silk of the Year in 2014.
