About Chris
I am a partner advising clients on all areas of real estate litigation and dispute resolution.
My clients include developers, owners, property institutions, financial institutions, hoteliers, retailers and insolvency practitioners.
Clients often come to me for advice on high-value and complex disputes relating to the use and occupation of land. I advise clients on lease renewals, claims relating to breach of covenant, rent and service charge recovery and real estate insolvency issues. In addition, I advise on construction disputes, including adjudications and arbitration. I also have experience advising on niche areas including Rights to Light and Business Rates disputes.
Prior to relocation to the south coast (where I grew up) I trained and practised at a large City firm.
I am married to my wife Gemma and have three children, Cameron, Dylan and Olivia. Outside of work, I am the manager of my son’s grassroots football team and a qualified FA coach. I have a passion for guitars and live music, and on occasion, can be found playing with my band at music venues on the South Coast. I am also a keen runner and will take any opportunity to get some fresh air, usually accompanied by my loyal Cocker Spaniel, Paddington.
