Harry’s journey to the bar came after working in the construction industry whilst gaining his academic and professional qualifications. His wide knowledge base; professional pragmatism; and diligent pride in his work are the foundations of his practice.

Harry has evolved his traditional common law practice into a bespoke chancery and commercial practice, with a particular focus on construction disputes, company and partnership disputes, probate and insolvency matters and trusts and equity litigation. His experience in construction claims necessarily requires that he regularly advise upon Landlord and Tenant matters.

His ToLATA knowledge and experience in Family FInance work creates a portmanteau practice encapsulating contentious probate matters; he regularly represents clients in both probate cases and ToLATA claims from inception through to their determination; starting from advising pre-action, drafting all necessary statements of case and providing representation in both the County Court and the High Court.

He continues his personal injury practice, with a focus on appearing for Defendants in Public Liability and Employer’s Liability claims; both Claimants and Defendants in construction related claims; and the Claimant in industrial disease claims including an experienced practice in asbestos claims. In keeping with his PhD studies he appears for both Claimant and Defendant in clinical negligence claims.

Academically, his Research Masters focused upon director’s fiduciary duties and Management Buyouts and the practical element of his PhD studies focused on medical negligence and ethics. He enrolled on the Costs Lawyers qualification shortly after gaining tenancy and gained the qualification after completing the requisite three year study period.

His prior experience in construction introduced him to the real face of construction contracts and construction disputes and has lent a reassuring practicality in his approach to his work, cases and lay clients which is a cornerstone of his practice.
