Commercial Dispute Resolution - London (Bar)
What the Team is Known For
Fountain Court houses talented commercial litigators at all levels of seniority. Its barristers are regulars in the most high-value and eye-catching cases of the day, routinely appearing in the Commercial Court, Financial List and Chancery Division. Although best known for their skill in banking and finance cases, they undertake a truly broad sweep of work and have involvement in major matters across the commercial spectrum. Recent examples of significant cases handled include: Athena Capital & Others v Secretariat of State of Holy See, a conspiracy and corruption claim arising out of the sale of prime London real estate; Moon & Others v Link Fund Solutions, a group action arising out of the suspension and liquidation of a fund; and the Russian Aircraft insurance claims. Commentators state: “The barristers at Fountain Court can handle the most complex disputes with great skill.” Another source remarks: “Fountain Court has excellent depth and breadth across both senior and junior counsel.”
Alex Taylor is the Senior Clerk.
