Phil is a Senior Associate and Head of the Commercial Litigation team, specialising in resolving complex commercial and property-related disputes for both businesses and individuals. He has particular expertise in insurance and coverage disputes, particularly advising policyholders on declined cover and complaints. Phil regularly acts in company, shareholder and director disputes, including unfair prejudice claims, claims relating to breaches of directors’ duties, and negotiated exits and settlements between business partners. He has extensive experience handling contractual disputes across a range of sectors, together with construction and building defect claims and adjudications, including issues arising under JCT contracts, defective workmanship, and disputes involving damage to contract works. His landlord and tenant practice covers possession claims, disrepair, lease terminations and recovery of unpaid rent. Phil also has broad property dispute experience with boundary and easement disputes, and other disputed title claims. Phil also advises on contentious probate and charity law, including disputes between estates and beneficiaries, claims for reasonable financial provision, and constitutional and governance issues affecting charitable organisations — an area he supports with many years’ first-hand experience as a charity trustee.
