What the Team is Known For

Erskine Chambers stands out for its considerable strength in litigation, and has an experienced silk bench capable of handling multi-jurisdictional disputes. Its barristers have a strong track record in the market, with continued involvement in BAT Industries v PwC, a very high-value professional negligence case, as well as the litigation arising out of the collapse of Carillion. A source reports Erskine Chambers to be “an excellent, go-to set, especially for matters involving Company Act claims”.

Phil Reeves is the senior clerk.
